Kinematic and Polarimetric Radar Observations of the 10 May 2010, Moore-Choctaw Oklahoma, Tornadic Debris Signature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ornadoes are capable of lofting large debris that present irregular shapes, near-random orientations, and a wide range of dielectric constants to polarimetric radars. The unique polarimetric signature associated with lofted ...
High-Temporal Resolution Observations of the 27 May 2015 Canadian, Texas, Tornado Using the Atmospheric Imaging Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On 27 May 2015, the Atmospheric Imaging Radar (AIR) collected high-temporal resolution radar observations of an EF-2 tornado near Canadian, Texas. The AIR is a mobile, X-band, imaging radar that uses digital beamforming ...
Analysis of the 16 May 2015 Tipton, Oklahoma, EF-3 Tornado at High Spatiotemporal Resolution Using the Atmospheric Imaging Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIn this study, data collected by the Atmospheric Imaging Radar (AIR) are analyzed in conjunction with WSR-88D data (KFDR) for a tornado near Tipton, Oklahoma, on 16 May 2015. The analysis presented herein utilizes ...
In Situ and Radar Observations of the Low Reflectivity Ribbon in Supercells during VORTEX2
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractDuring the second Verification of the Origins of Rotation in Tornadoes Experiment (VORTEX2) field campaign, mobile radars observed a previously undocumented feature: the low-reflectivity ribbon (LRR). The LRR was ...
