Table 6 Thresholds of cell component search

From: Thunderstorm identification algorithm research based on simulated airborne weather radar reflectivity data

Threshold

Meaning

Default value

Azimuthal separation (°)

The maximum azimuthal separation required for assigning cell segment into the same component

5

Segment overlap (km)

The minimum slant range overlap required for assigning cell segments to the same component

1

Number of segments (unit)

The minimum number of cell segments required in a component

2

Component area (km2)

A set of required minimum areas for a component. There is an area threshold for each reflectivity threshold used to find cell segments
