Differential Reflectivity values are measurements related to the returned energy difference between the vertical and horizontal radar pulses. Large positive values indicate that targets are generally much larger horizontally than vertically. Values near zero indicate the targets are generally spherical. Negative values indicate targets are larger in the vertical than in the horizontal. The four lowest elevation angles are available.
