Lamb's weather types classification has been used here to analyse the characteristics of raindrops in relation with the meteorological situation. A rainfall gathering campaign has been carried out in Leon [northwesterly (NW) Spain] over 34 months. An optical disdrometer has been used to determine drop sizes and the meteorological situations have been classified from the pressure values at surface...
The present paper describes the procedures used to measure and compute the kinetic energy and various other rainfall characteristics as well as the concurrent splash erosion rates in a recently terraced forest plantation in Soutelo, north-central Portugal, from May to September 2007. This involved the use of an optical disdrometer, a standard automated rain gauge and two types of splash erosion measurement...
