This paper demonstrates the impact of the enhancement in detectability by the dual-frequency precipitation radar (DPR) on board the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) core observatory. By setting two minimum detectable reflectivities-12 and 18 dBZ-artificially to 6 months of GPM DPR measurements, the precipitation occurrence and volume increase...
