Retrieval of Horizontal Wind Field and Mesoscale Vertical vorticity in Stratiform Precipitation by Conical Scannings with Two Doppler Radars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Stratiform precipitations associated with fronts and squall lines are commonly observed by means of a single Doppler radar operating conical scannings. The data analysis is frequently the Velocity Azimuth Display?or ...
A New Analysis for the Retrieval of Three-Dimensional Mesoscale Wind Fields from Multiple Doppler Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The present study is devoted to a new analysis of the Doppler information from multiple Doppler radar scannings aimed at studying the three-dimensional wind field at mesoscale. This analysis referred to as MANDOP (for ...
MANDOP Analysis over Complex Orography in the Context of the MAP Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The present paper deals with the adaptation of the Multiple Analytical Doppler (MANDOP) analysis to Doppler radar observations over complex orography. The objective, in the context of the Mesoscale Alpine Programme (MAP), ...
Real-Time Retrieval of the Wind from Aliased Velocities Measured by Doppler Radars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Doppler radar measurements provide the radial wind within an unambiguous interval due to the limited value of the sampling frequency (pulse repetition frequency). Many algorithms have been developed to retrieve true wind ...
A Tropical Squall Line Observed during the COPT 81 Experiment in West Africa. Part 1: Kinematic Structure Inferred from Dual-Doppler Radar Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper deals with the analysis of a tropical squall line, observed on 22 June 1981 during the COPT 81 (Convection Profonde Tropicale) experiment. The present Part I is restricted to the study of the kinematic structure ...
A Radar Simulator for High-Resolution Nonhydrostatic Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A full radar simulator for high-resolution (1?5 km) nonhydrostatic models has been developed within the research nonhydrostatic mesoscale atmospheric (Meso-NH) model. This simulator is made up of building blocks, each of ...
