A MOBILE RADAR BASED CLIMATOLOGY OF SUPERCELL TORNADO STRUCTURES AND DYNAMICS
(2010)
Fine-scale-resolution mobile radar observations of supercell tornadoes have been collected by the Doppler On Wheels (DOWs) platform between 1995 and 2010. The result of this ongoing effort is a large observational database ...
The impact of precipitation physical processes on the polarimetric radar variables
(2012)
The ongoing upgrade of the National Weather Service WSR-88D radar network to polarimetric capabilities, as well as similar upgrades worldwide, will soon provide a wealth of data and information regarding storm precipitation ...
OBSERVATIONS OF SUPERCELL TORNADO EVOLUTION USING A MOBILE, RAPID-SCAN, X-BAND RADAR
(2013)
On 24 May 2011, a series of supercell thunderstorms and violent tornadoes tore through central Oklahoma. A mobile, rapid-scan, X-band, polarimetric, Doppler radar (RaXPol), collected data from one of those storms as it ...
ASSIMILATION OF ATTENUATED DATA FROM X-BAND NETWORK RADARS USING ENSEMBLE KALMAN FILTER
(2013)
To use reflectivity data from X-band radars for quantitative precipitation estimation and storm-scale data assimilation, the effect of attenuation must be properly accounted for. Traditional approaches try to make correction ...
Mobile, Phased-Array, Doppler Radar Observations of Tornadoes at X Band
(2012)
Previous studies of tornadoes have utilized high-spatial-resolution data obtained by mobile Doppler radars to better understand phenomena that occur on small spatial scales. There has not been a similar focus on using ...
Multistatic Passive Weather Radar
(2020-05-08)
Practical and accurate estimation of three-dimensional wind fields is an ongoing challenge in radar meteorology. Multistatic (single transmitter / multiple receivers) radar architectures offer a cost effective solution for ...
