  "term": "Raindrop size distribution",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The statistical representation of the number of raindrops within specific size ranges in a given volume of air. This distribution affects the radar reflectivity and the terminal velocity of precipitation, influencing how rainfall is measured and how it impacts the ground. It is often characterized by parameters such as the median volume diameter.",
