Revealing the Precipitation Characteristics of Tropical Cyclone Ockhi from Polarimetric Doppler Weather Radar in Conjunction with Disdrometer Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Study on Optimum Tilt Angle for Wind Estimation Using Indian MST Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effect of tilt angle on horizontal wind estimation is studied using Indian mesosphere?stratosphere?troposphere (MST) radar located at Gadanki (13.45°N, 79.18°E). It operates in Doppler beam swinging (DBS) mode with a ...
Multifrequency Decoding of a Phased Array Doppler Sodar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Doppler sodar is being used for studying the lower part of atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) and wind profiling. To obtain maximum altitude coverage multifrequency transmission has been used along with more transmitted ...
First Results of Experimental Tests of the Newly Developed NARL Phased-Array Doppler Sodar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A multifrequency phased-array Doppler sodar system has been installed recently at the National Atmospheric Research Laboratory (NARL) for the continuous observation of the lower atmosphere from near ground to the atmospheric ...
Evaluation of DBS Wind Measurement Technique in Different Beam Configurations for a VHF Wind Profiler
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Atmospheric winds in the troposphere have been observed routinely for many years with wind profiling (VHF and UHF) radars using the Doppler beam swinging (DBS) technique. Accuracy of wind estimates using wind profiling ...
An Adaptive Moments Estimation Technique Applied to MST Radar Echoes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An adaptive spectral moments estimation technique has been developed for analyzing the Doppler spectra of the mesosphere?stratosphere?troposphere (MST) radar signals. The technique, implemented with the MST radar at Gadanki ...
A Climatological Study of the Nocturnal Boundary Layer over a Complex-Terrain Station
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: wo years of Doppler sodar measurements are used to study the time?height structure of the nocturnal boundary layer (NBL), its seasonal variation, and the characteristics of different types of NBL. A total of 220 clear-sky ...
Estimation and Comparison of Horizontal Winds Using Various Spectral Estimation Methods on Profiler Radars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he lower atmospheric wind profiles are obtained by the postset beam steering (PBS) technique on middle and upper (MU) atmosphere radar data. The Capon beamformer is used to improve the beam synthesizing in the desired ...
