Alternate Title: Impact Disdrometer (ID)

Brief Description (Abstract):

As a part of the High Altitude Cloud Physics Laboratory project, the Impact Disdrometer (ID) has deployed at Mahabaleshwar, a remote location in the complex terrain of the Western Ghats (WG). The Impact Disdrometer continuously provides the measurement of Rain Accumulation, Rain Rate, and Drop Size Distribution.

Status: Ongoing

Purpose: To measure the rainfall, Rainrate, and drop size distribution
