## Abstract During the African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analysis (AMMA) field campaign, polarimetric weather radars, a rain‐gauge network and disdrometers were available to analyse the convective systems and the rainfall in Benin. In this paper a three‐year dataset of drop size distributions is us
