Quantitative Precipitation Estimation in the CASA X-band Dual-Polarization Radar Network
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents the sensing aspects and performance evaluation of the quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) system in an X-band dual-polarization radar network developed by the Collaborative Adaptive Sensing of ...
Algorithm for Estimation of the Specific Differential Phase
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The specific differential phase Kdp is one of the important parameters measured by dual-polarization radar that is being considered for the upgrade of the current Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD) system. Estimation ...
Characterization and Evaluation of Hybrid Polarization Observation of Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Transmitting an arbitrary state of polarization while receiving horizontal?vertical polarization states is termed the hybrid polarization mode of operation. A theoretical model is developed for hybrid mode dual-polarization ...
The CASA Nowcasting System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hort-term prediction (nowcasting) of high-impact weather events can lead to significant improvement in warnings and advisories and is of great practical importance. Nowcasting using weather radar reflectivity data has been ...
Short-Wavelength Technology and the Potential For Distributed Networks of Small Radar Systems
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Dense networks of short-range radars capable of mapping storms and detecting atmospheric hazards are described. Composed of small X-band (9.4 GHz) radars spaced tens of kilometers apart, these networks defeat the Earth ...
