This book was released on 1981 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computational study is made of the variation of steady-state raindrop-size distributions (0.004 cm less than or equal to radius less than or equal to 0.40 cm) in adiabatic subcloud downdrafts of constant magnitude. The cloud base drop-size distribution is assumed to be Marshall-Palmer. The microphysical processes progressively introduced are evaporation, collision-coalescence, aerodynamic and collisional breakup of drops. Collision-coalescence and breakup area treated through a stochastic model. Thermodynamic and hydrometeoric variables of temperature, relative humidity, total liquid water, rainfall rate and radar reflectivity are computed as functions of height below cloud base along with the drop-size distributions. It is found that evaporation tends to deplete, as expected, the smaller members of the droplet population. Computed raindrop-size distributions agree quite well with measured maritime raindrop spectra reported in the literature, the agreement being better for the higher precipitation rates measured. Other results of the study, as anticipated, are (1) that the downdraft remains unsaturated in the presence of precipitation, the degree of subsaturation increasing with the strength of the downdraft, and (2) that the temperature in the downdraft lies between the moist-adiabatic and the dry-adiabatic lapse rates of temperature.

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.
