Constructing Three-Dimensional Multiple-Radar Reflectivity Mosaics: Examples of Convective Storms and Stratiform Rain Echoes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The advent of Internet-2 and effective data compression techniques facilitates the economic transmission of base-level radar data from the Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) network to users in real time. ...
Polarimetric Signatures of Midlatitude Warm-Rain Precipitation Events
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: recipitation events in which rainfall is generated primarily below the freezing level via warm-rain processes have traditionally presented a significant challenge for radar and satellite quantitative precipitation estimation ...
Evaluation of MRMS snowfall products over the western United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: now is important to water resources and is of critical importance to our society. Ground weather radar-based snowfall observations have been highly desirable for large-scale weather monitoring and water resources applications. ...
Comparison of TRMM 2A25 Products, Version 6 and Version 7, with NOAA/NSSL Ground Radar–Based National Mosaic QPE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: haracterization of the error associated with satellite rainfall estimates is a necessary component of deterministic and probabilistic frameworks involving spaceborne passive and active microwave measurements for applications ...
Echo Height Measurements with the WSR-88D: Use of Data from One Versus Two Radars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The new Doppler radars of the National Weather Service (i.e., the WSR-88D radars) are operated continuously in a volume scanning mode (called Volume Coverage Pattern, VCP) with the elevation tilt angles fixed for several ...
Toward a Framework for Systematic Error Modeling of Spaceborne Precipitation Radar with NOAA/NSSL Ground Radar–Based National Mosaic QPE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: haracterization of the error associated with satellite rainfall estimates is a necessary component of deterministic and probabilistic frameworks involving spaceborne passive and active microwave measurements for applications ...
The Influence of Surface and Precipitation Characteristics on TRMM Microwave Imager Rainfall Retrieval Uncertainty
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: haracterization of the error associated with quantitative precipitation estimates (QPEs) from spaceborne passive microwave (PMW) sensors is important for a variety of applications ranging from flood forecasting to climate ...
Evaluation of Spatial Errors of Precipitation Rates and Types from TRMM Spaceborne Radar over the Southern CONUS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this paper, the authors estimate the uncertainty of the rainfall products from NASA and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's (JAXA) Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM) Precipitation Radar (PR) so that they may ...
Multifrequency Radar Observations Collected in Southern France during HyMeX-SOP1
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he radar network deployed in southern France during the first special observing period (SOP 1) of the Hydrological Cycle in the Mediterranean Experiment (HyMeX) was designed to precisely document the 3D structure of moist ...
