This cumulative dissertation includes four peer-reviewed and published articles. It evaluates three open-access radar quantitative precipitation estimate (QPE) products from the German Weather Service (DWD) with different temporal resolutions. The improved length and quality of the DWD’s radar QPE products allows a detailed assessment of existing statistical precipitation characteristics and scaling laws, which are established on the basis of traditional point measurements only. The focus of the thesis is on heavy to extreme rainfall and scaling characteristics in time and space. The first publication is a comprehensive assessment of spatio-temporal heavy rainfall pattern in context of urban rainfall modification. The analysis identifies st...
