The Identification and Verification of Hazardous Convective Cells over Oceans Using Visible and Infrared Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three algorithms based on geostationary visible and infrared (IR) observations are used to identify convective cells that do (or may) present a hazard to aviation over the oceans. The performance of these algorithms in ...

Abstract: AbstractChaff is a radar countermeasure typically used by military branches in training exercises around the United States. Chaff within view of the S-band WSR-88D beam can appear prominently on radar users? displays. ...
Measurements of Differential Reflectivity in Snowstorms and Warm Season Stratiform Systems
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he organized behavior of differential radar reflectivity (ZDR) is documented in the cold regions of a wide variety of stratiform precipitation types occurring in both winter and summer. The radar targets and attendant cloud ...
