RISRetrieval of Arbitrarily Shaped Raindrop Size Distributions from Wind Profiler Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An efficient iterative retrieval method for arbitrarily shaped raindrop size distributions (ITRAN) is developed for Doppler spectra measured with a wind profiler. A measured Doppler spectrum is a convolution of the ...
Geometrical Properties of Hydrometeors during the Refreezing Process and Their Effects on Dual-Polarized Radar Signals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis paper describes an observational study for the geometrical properties of hydrometeors during a refreezing process initiated by a winter storm in the northern Kanto Plain, Japan, on 29 January 2016, in which a ...
Volcanic Ash Transport from Mount Asama to the Tokyo Metropolitan Area Influenced by Large-Scale Local Wind Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The eruption of the Mount Asama volcano on 16 September 2004 produced an ash cloud and led to ashfall in the Tokyo metropolitan area that lies on the Kanto Plain. Satellite images showed the ash cloud drifting toward the ...
Evaluation of Three-Beam and Four-Beam Profiler Wind Measurement Techniques Using a Five-Beam Wind Profiler and Collocated Meteorological Tower
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper a five-beam wind profiler and a collocated meteorological tower are used to estimate the accuracy of four-beam and three-beam wind profiler techniques in measuring horizontal components of the wind. In the ...
