In-situ measurements of raindrop size dist … In-situ measurements of raindrop size distributions, fall velocities, drop number concentrations and surface rain rates recorded by an OTT Parsivel2 disdrometer named "PAR006" in Slufter, The Netherlands. Located in the Maasvlakte Rotterdam, The Slufter is a large-scale storage site for contaminated sludge in the southwestern part of the Rotterdam Maasvlakte, approximately 31 km West of the city center of Rotterdam. Along the ring dike of the Slufter, several wind turbines belong to the Windpark Slufterdam are providing electricity for the region. The same site also features a micro-rain radar "MRR005_Slufter" (since March 2022). All sensors are placed on top of an air quality monitoring container belonging to TNO, at a height of approx. 4 meters. The rough climate conditions near the coast of the North Sea, with high winds, salt, and sand creates a very challenging environment for long-term weather observations. Consequently, data availability tends to be lower than at other sites, due to frequent maintenance and technical issues.frequent maintenance and technical issues. +
