Disdrometer Data

The following links take you to charts of the rain data collected in central Oklahoma by the OU 2DVD disdrometer from 2005 to 2023. It was funded via the NSF Award, "Improving Microphysics Parameterizations and Quantitative Precipitation Forecast through Optimal Use of Video Disdrometer, Profiler and Polarimetric Radar Observations" (#0608168), and is currently funded through the NSF grant AGS-2136161. This data has been used in several refereed publications and conference presentations/papers. After clicking on one of the links, you'll see a calendar with linked dates - those are the dates for which we have DSD data. Although the data is presented in chart form, we can provide the raw data upon request.


Note: Data collected during the period from January 1 to April 29, 2010 should be taken with caution due to 2DVD miscalibration! Also, data collected from June 5 to November 10, 2013 should be taken with caution for similar reasons!
