Radar Receiver Transfer Function Estimate from Correlated Meteorological Echoes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The precise and continuous calibration of a radar is an important task for maintaining the accuracy of radar measurements. The calibration of radar receiver transfer function slope can be performed using bias measurements ...
Operational Monitoring of Rainfall over the Arno River Basin Using Dual-Polarized Radar and Rain Gauges
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Reflectivity (ZH) and differential reflectivity (ZDR) measurements collected by Polar 55C over the Arno River basin in Italy are presented. The applicability of dual-polarization (ZDR)-based rainfall algorithms at C band ...
Effects of Raindrop-Size Distribution Variation within the Radar Scattering Volume on Radar Observables
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Dual linear polarization weather radars measure as primary observables the mean power P?H, and P?V, corresponding to returns at horizontal and vertical polarizations, respectively. Differential reflectivity ZDR is defined ...
