  • 摘要:Abstract A knowledge of melting layer (ML) is crucial for studying precipitation and hydrometeor. Based on the measurements of dual‐frequency ratio (DFRm) from the dual‐frequency precipitation radar on board the Global Precipitation Measurement satellite, we use the covariance wavelet transform (CWT) method to identify the ML top height (MLTH) through the DFRm profiles. Due to the influence of disturbance, the directly retrieved MLTH could be estimated mistakenly. To improve the reliability of the retrieved MLTH, a quality‐control algorithm based on the CWT method is developed. By comparing the MLTH with the corresponding 0°C isothermal heights, the retrieved MLTH are more reliable than the dual‐frequency precipitation radar (DPR) product, showing great potential in deploying the Global Precipitation Measurement DPR and the CWT method in the identification of the MLTH.
