Vorticity and Divergence Fields within Tornadic Storms from Dual-Doppler Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tornadic storms passed between the two NSSL Doppler radars on 20 April and 8 June, 1974. Both radars simultaneously collected Dopplar data throughout these storms. From the derived velocity fields, vorticity and divergence ...
Response of a Two-Dimensional Dual-Doppler Radar Wind Synthesis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The wind field resulting from a two-dimensional dual-Doppler synthesis algorithms is spectrally modified from the true wind field. The effects of spatial filtering on wind fields from the processes of interpolation, the ...
A Comparison of Tornado Warning Lead Times with and without NEXRAD Doppler Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The installation of the network of NEXRAD (Next Generation Weather Radar) WSR-88D (Weather Surveillance Radar?1988 Doppler) radars has been an ongoing process for more than three years. An assessment is made on how these ...
De-Aliasing First-Moment Doppler Estimates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A technique to remove the ambiguity in Doppler mean velocity estimates is described. The technique assumes that along a radial, or portion of a radial, the velocity estimates are quasi-uniformly distributed about the mean. ...
Assessment of the Geometric and Temporal Errors Associated with Airborne Doppler Radar Measurements of a Convective Storm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On 20 April 1984, the NOAA WP-3D aircraft, equipped with a Doppler radar in its tail, flew around a growing thunderstorm new Norman, Oklahoma. Doppler wind data was collected as the airplane flew six legs around the storm. ...
Pressure and Buoyancy Fields Derived from Doppler Radar Data in a Tornadic Thunderstorm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for retrieval of pressure and buoyancy distributions in deep convection is applied to Doppler radar data collected at two analysis times during the tornadic Del City (Oklahoma) thunderstorm of 20 May 1977. Change ...
