This brief paper illustrates some profiles of radar reflectivity in various precipitation systems observed during the 1998-99 Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) field campaigns. the profiles were collected by a nadir-viewing radar on the NASA ER-2 flying around 20 km altitude. The paper focuses on hurricane environments.
