Abstract
The effects of three-body scattering on differential reflectivity signatures are investigated using data from the DLR's C-band radar located at Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany. The three-body signature is easily seen as the protruding reflectivity area on the right hand side in the top panel which suggests that the primary backscatter for ranges greater than 90 km is very small so that the seen reflectivity contours are probably due exclusively to three-body scatter. A model is used which predicts the differential reflectivity signatures in specific areas of interest.
