Abstract: Measurements of the backscatter matrix, including phase, have been made at 2.86 GHz on blocks of ice intended to approximate oblate and prolate spheroids with axial ratios of 0.6 and 0.8. For 2.5<ka<4.5 respective cancellation ...

Abstract: Measurements are presented of the extent to which a common alignment of hydrometeors exists in various forms of precipitation. The observations, obtained with circularly-polarized radars situated at Penhold, Alberta and ...

Abstract: In this paper, the method of using differential propagation phase shift ?Φ to measure rain rate R from X-band circular depolarization ratio (CDR) radar data is presented. The principle of this method is based on the fact ...
