Data for "Leveraging a Disdrometer Network to Develop a Probabilistic Precipitation Phase Model in Eastern Canada"

Abstract

Abstract. This study presents a probabilistic model that partitions the precipitation phase based on hourly measurements from a network of radar-based disdrometers in eastern Canada. The network consists of 27 meteorological stations located in a boreal climate for the years 2020-2023. Precipitation phase observations showed a 2-m air temperature interval between 0-4°C where probabilities of occurrence of solid, liquid, or mixed precipitation significantly overlapped. Single-phase precipitation was also found to occur more frequently than mixed-phase precipitation. Probabilistic phase-guided partitioning (PGP) models of increasing complexity using random forest algorithms were developed. The PGP models classified the precipitation phase and partitioned the precipitation accordingly into solid and liquid amounts. PGP_basic is based on 2-m air temperature and site elevation, while PGP_hydromet integrates relative humidity. PGP_full includes all the above data plus atmospheric reanalysis data. The PGP models were compared to benchmark precipitation phase partitioning methods. These included a single temperature threshold model set at 1.5°C, a linear transition model with dual temperature thresholds of –0.38 and 5°C, and a psychrometric balance model. Among the benchmark models, the single temperature threshold had the best classification performance due to a low count of mixed-phase events. The other benchmark models tended to over-predict mixed-phase precipitation in order to decrease partitioning error. All PGP models showed significant phase classification improvement by reproducing the observed overlapping precipitation phases based on 2-m air temperature. In terms of partitioning error, PGP_full had the lowest RMSE and the least variability in performance. The RMSE of the single temperature threshold model was the highest and showed the greatest performance variability. The improvement of mixed-phase prediction remains a challenge. This study establishes a basis for integrating automated phase observations into a hydrometeorological observation network and developing probabilistic precipitation phase models.
