Inside Volcanic Clouds: Remote Sensing of Ash Plumes Using Microwave Weather Radars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ical and dynamical features of volcanic tephra due to Plinian and sub-Plinian eruptions can be quantitatively monitored by using ground-based microwave weather radars. The methodological rationale and unique potential of ...
On the Use of Dual-Polarized C-Band Radar for Operational Rainfall Retrieval in Mountainous Areas
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: adar-rainfall estimation is a complex process that involves several error sources, some of which are related to the environmental context. The presence of orographic obstacles heavily affects the quality of the retrieved ...
Correction of Polarimetric Radar Reflectivity Measurements and Rainfall Estimates for Apparent Vertical Profile in Stratiform Rain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: method for correcting the vertical profile of reflectivity measurements and rainfall estimates (VPR) in plan position indicator (PPI) scans of polarimetric weather radars in the melting layer and the snow layer during ...
Performance Evaluation of a New Dual-Polarization Microphysical Algorithm Based on Long-Term X-Band Radar and Disdrometer Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ccurate estimation of precipitation at high spatial and temporal resolution of weather radars is an open problem in hydrometeorological applications. The use of dual polarization gives the advantage of multiparameter ...
