Skewness as measure of the invariance of instantaneous renormalized drop diameter distributions – Part 1: Convective vs. stratiform precipitation

We investigate the variability of the shape of the renormalized drop diameter instantaneous distribution using of the third order central moment: the <i>skewness</i>. Disdrometer data, collected at Darwin Australia, are considered either as whole or as divided in convecti...
