pyrad.proc.process_differential_reflectivity(procstatus, dscfg, radar_list=None)[source]#

Computes differential reflectivity from the horizontal and vertical spectral reflectivity

Parameters:

  • procstatus (int) – Processing status: 0 initializing, 1 processing volume, 2 post-processing

  • dscfg (dictionary of dictionaries) –

    data set configuration. Accepted configuration keywords:

    datatype : list of string. Dataset keyword
    The input data types, must contain,
    "sdBZ" and "sdBZv", or
    "sdBuZ" and "sdBZuv"

  • radar_list (list of spectra objects) – Optional. list of spectra objects

Returns:

  • new_dataset (dict) – dictionary containing the output fields “ZDR” or “ZDRu” depending on the specified input datatype

  • ind_rad (int) – radar index
