Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remote PPI with display of three intensity levels in shades of gray and compensation for range variations in scope illumination has been set up for the WR-66 radar. Camera attachments have been added to both radars. Design of the data processor has been completed. Printed circuits have been drawn and chasses have been built. A sensing unit for a continuously and automatically recording raindrop spectrometer has been built. Data taken in a number of storms show clearly that the WR-66 radar does not suffer from the limitations of attenuation, and low sensitivity and resolution which have been observed in the AN/CPS-9 and SCR-615-B radars. Applications and Analysis: Analysis of the mesoscale precipitation patterns in various types of storms and their relation to macroscale parameters is continuing. Coastal cyclones, some overland cyclones from the southwest, cold fronts and air mass storms have been analyzed. Results of a numerical analysis of snowflake aggregation are summarized. (Author).

This book was released on 1967 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of a study of the measurement of rainfall by radar at a range of 75 miles are presented. Some of the problems of radar measurements at this range are found to be attenuation and effects of the radar beam's vertical extent at distant ranges. The analysis of drop-size data from rains at Flagstaff, Arizona shows that the radar-rainfall relationships there are quite different from those measured elsewhere by the drop camera technique. Results of a study of drop-size distributions from New Jersey and North Carolina are presented. In many respects, the data from these two locations are similar. A paper dealing with the analysis of drop-size data from Florida and Oregon is included as an appendix. (Author).

Download or read book Polarimetric Doppler Weather Radar written by V. N. Bringi and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-08-30 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2001 book provides a detailed introduction to the principles of Doppler and polarimetric radar, focusing in particular on their use in the analysis of weather systems. The design features and operation of practical radar systems are highlighted throughout the book in order to illustrate important theoretical foundations. The authors begin by discussing background topics such as electromagnetic scattering, polarization, and wave propagation. They then deal in detail with the engineering aspects of pulsed Doppler polarimetric radar, including the relevant signal theory, spectral estimation techniques, and noise considerations. They close by examining a range of key applications in meteorology and remote sensing. The book will be of great use to graduate students of electrical engineering and atmospheric science as well as to practitioners involved in the applications of polarimetric radar systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this monograph is to present an analysis of all the factors that determine the susceptibility of a radar altimeter to a false indication of height because of rain clouds. This analysis will be precise enough and general enough to determine whether any altimeter is safe from this effect. If this check should reveal a doubtful condition, the analysis shows how much the transmitter frequency should be decreased.
