    Abstract

    As a part of a Local Area Weather Radar (LAWR) calibration exercise 15
    km south of Århus, Denmark, the variability in accumulated rainfall
    within a single radar pixel (500 by 500 m) was measured using nine
    high-resolution rain gauges. The measured values indicate up to a 100%
    variation between neighbouring rain gauges within the pixel over a 4-day
    period.
