Work has been undertaken at the academy of graduate studies aimed to improve the rainfall rate measurements by radar, so deriving the empirical Z-R relationship for Tripoli City is needed, and also finding a correction factor between Radar and Raingauges readings was of our concern. For the purpose C- band weather radar was used for rainfall rate measurements and calibrated with the four meteorological weather stations located within 50 Km radius of the radar position. The objective was achieved, and Comparison of Tripoli Z-R relation with Marshall and Palmer general formula, for resent weather event in Tripoli city, was also given. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
