Details of the Weather Channel Hirad System are disclosed in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/021,801, entitled “Producing High-Resolution, Real-Time Synthetic Meteorological Conditions From Radar Data,” filed Dec. 22, 2004 and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/042,681, entitled ...
Figure 6. Distribution map for retrieved ocean currents (left: units are centimeters per second) and directions (right: units are degrees, blue vectors are retrieved-ocean directions and red vectors are measured by HF radar, respectively). The ocean current speed is 42 cm/s and corresponding cu...

the nearest weather radar is Flagstaff (KFLX), which is about 150 km toward the northeast, outside of the domain. The simulation depicts the maximum vertical column reflectivity, thus what the radar sees may not necessarily be the maximum reflectivity in the vertical column because of the beam...
Below the flow patterns of the reconstructed current there is the corresponding plasma pressure map, which permits us to better visualize the regions where the current develops. As expected, the current tends to flow around the plasma pressure enhancements and is stronger in region where the plasma...
Key factors influencing building thermal loads and vulnerability to climate change are weather conditions and construction age. Tropical climates, for example, have to face the continuous increase in summer energy demand more than other locations, and deeper impacts are experienced by older buildings not...
[13]). Since the radar signal-to-noise ratio depends on the amount of backscattered radar power, higher wind speeds that roughen the ocean surface will increase the radar signal-to-noise-ratio and decrease surface current uncertainty, as shown in Rodríguez et al. [12] and Wineteer et al....
and field surveys. The value results of each waterfront segment are mapped on Beijing’s map and radar maps. Third, this study analyzes the current issues of Beijing’s waterfront through current value assessment and field surveys and analyzes the urban design optimization aspects of different water...
However, there is a range of topics where EO applications can contribute such as monitoring the water level of lakes, dams, and rivers with satellite radar altimeters and identifying the presence of different substances in water based on their unique spectral signatures, which can be measured by...
evolution of a key industry. The goal is to identify common threat actors, their motivations, attacks types and map the vulnerabilities within aviation infrastructures most commonly subject to persistent attack campaigns. The analyses will enable an improved understanding of both the current and ...
