Analysis of a Destructive Wind Storm on 16 November 2008 in Brisbane, Australia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: uring the late afternoon on 16 November 2008 the Brisbane (Queensland, Australia) suburb of ?The Gap? experienced extensive wind damage caused by an intense local thunderstorm. The CP2 research radar nearby detected ...
The Effect of Radial Velocity Gridding Artifacts on Variationally Retrieved Vertical Velocities
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This article investigates the source and impact of artifacts produced by ordered linear interpolation techniques on variationally retrieved updraft intensities. Qualitative reasoning for the generation of periodic perturbations ...
Precipitation Estimation from the ARM Distributed Radar Network during the MC3E Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study presents radar-based precipitation estimates collected during the 2-month U.S. Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program (ARM)?NASA Midlatitude Continental Convective Clouds Experiment (MC3E). ...
Statistics of Storm Updraft Velocities from TWP-ICE Including Verification with Profiling Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: omparisons between direct measurements and modeled values of vertical air motions in precipitating systems are complicated by differences in temporal and spatial scales. On one hand, vertically profiling radars more directly ...
An Adaptive Tracking Algorithm for Convection in Simulated and Remote Sensing Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Summary of Convective-Core Vertical Velocity Properties Using ARM UHF Wind Profilers in Oklahoma
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study presents a summary of the properties of deep convective updraft and downdraft cores over the central plains of the United States, accomplished using a novel and now-standard Atmospheric Radiation Measurement ...
A Summary of Precipitation Characteristics from the 2006–11 Northern Australian Wet Seasons as Revealed by ARM Disdrometer Research Facilities (Darwin, Australia)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he variability of rainfall and drop size distributions (DSDs) as a function of large-scale atmospheric conditions and storm characteristics is investigated using measurements from the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement ...
Correction of Dual-PRF Doppler Velocity Outliers in the Presence of Aliasing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIn Doppler weather radars, the presence of unfolding errors or outliers is a well-known quality issue for radial velocity fields estimated using the dual?pulse repetition frequency (PRF) technique. Postprocessing ...
Radar-Derived Statistics of Convective Storms in Southeast Queensland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he aim of this study is to examine the statistics of convective storms and their concomitant changes with thermodynamic variability. The thermodynamic variability is analyzed by performing a cluster analysis on variables ...
An Integrated Approach to Weather Radar Calibration and Monitoring Using Ground Clutter and Satellite Comparisons
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The stability and accuracy of weather radar reflectivity calibration are imperative for quantitative applications, such as rainfall estimation, severe weather monitoring and nowcasting, and assimilation in numerical weather ...
