RISVertical Motion Structure in Maritime continent mesoscale Convective Systems: Results from a 50-MHz Profiler
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wind profiler data wore used to determine the vertical motion structure in four tropical mcsoscale convective systems (MCSs), which occurred during the Down Under Doppler and Electricity Experiment (DUNDEE) near Darwin. ...
Measurements of Heavy Convective Rainfall in the Presence of Hail in Flood-Prone Areas Using an X-Band Polarimetric Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he utility of X-band polarimetric radar to provide rainfall estimations with high spatial and temporal resolution in heavy convective precipitation in the presence of hail is explored. A case study involving observations ...
Storm Morphology and Rainfall Characteristics of TRMM Precipitation Features
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Precipitation Radar (PR), TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI), and Visible and Infrared Scanner (VIRS) observations within the Precipitation Feature (PF) database have been analyzed to ...
Polarimetric Radar Observations of Convection in Northwestern Mexico during the North American Monsoon Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The spatial and temporal variability of convection during the North American Monsoon Experiment (NAME) was examined via analysis of three-dimensional polarimetric radar data. Terrain bands were defined as the Gulf of ...

Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: orrecting observed polarimetric radar variables for attenuation and differential attenuation effects in rain is important for meteorological applications involving measurements at attenuating frequencies such as those at ...
An Ensemble Study of Wet Season Convection in Southwest Amazonia: Kinematics and Implications for Diabatic Heating
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Dual-Doppler radar data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Large Scale Biosphere?Atmosphere Experiment in Amazonia (TRMM-LBA) field campaign are used to determine characteristic kinematic and reflectivity vertical ...
Snow-Level Estimates Using Operational Polarimetric Weather Radar Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: canning polarimetric measurements from the operational Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) systems are evaluated for the retrievals of snow-level (SL) heights, which are located below the 0°C isotherm and ...
Horizontal Divergence and Vertical Velocity Retrievals from Doppler Radar and Wind Profiler Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Vertical motion profiles can be diagnosed with the mass continuity equation using horizontal divergence fields derived from various single-Doppler radar techniques such as EVAD (extended velocity-azimuth display), CEVAD ...
A Multiscale Evaluation of Multisensor Quantitative Precipitation Estimates in the Russian River Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Russian River in northern California is an important hydrological resource that typically depends on a few significant precipitation events per year, often associated with atmospheric rivers (ARs), to maintain ...
