A Comparison of Scan Speedup Strategies and Their Effect on Rapid-Scan Weather Radar Data Quality
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As the existing NEXRAD radar network nears the end of its lifecycle, intense study and planning are underway to design a viable replacement system. Ideally, such a system would offer improved temporal resolution compared ...
Spatially variable advection correction of Doppler radial velocity data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Techniques to mitigate analysis errors arising from the non-simultaneity of data collections typically use advection-correction procedures based on the hypothesis (frozen turbulence) that the analyzed field can be represented ...
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 ...
Observations of Severe Local Storms and Tornadoes with the Atmospheric Imaging Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: obile radar platforms designed for observation of severe local storms have consistently pushed the boundaries of spatial and temporal resolution in order to allow for detailed analysis of storm structure and evolution. ...
