depolarization
(zdr, rho)¶ Compute the depolarization ration.
Compute the depolarization ration using differential reflectivity \(Z_{DR}\) and crosscorrelation coefficient \(Rho_{HV}\) of a radar sweep ([Kilambi et al., 2018], [Melnikov et al., 2013], [Ryzhkov et al., 2017]).
Parameters: - zdr (float or
numpy.ndarray
) – differential reflectivity - rho (float or
numpy.ndarray
) – crosscorrelation coefficient
Returns: depolarization (
numpy.ndarray
) – array of depolarization ratios with the same shape as input data, numpy broadcasting rules apply- zdr (float or
