National Gets Doppler Radar; Airport Is First in Washington Area to Use Wind-Shear SensorAlice Reid
This study documents the maximum Doppler velocities observed by the Miami National Weather Service Doppler radar (WSR-88D)during Hurricane Wilma's passage across South Florida on 24 October 2005 These observations serve as a proxy for observations of surface wind in regions where surface observing ...
We present CR of NEXRAD radar data for various weather regimes including clear air, squall line, hurricane, and stratiform rain using the Burrows-Wheeler algorithm bzip2. We found that CR for the precipitation events analyzed range between 6:1 to as high as 11:1. CR for the clear air ...
Doppler radar tracks non-weather debris to aid emergency response Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are using non-weather data from the nationwide weather radar network to understand how to track non-meteorological events moving through the air for ... Jan 6...
Doppler radar: research at the National Severe Storms Laboratory. Weatherwise - Ray, Brown, et al. - 1979 () Citation Context ...Thus, real-time bird data would be updated at 5 minute intervals. The NEXRAD system gathers data on echo intensity in decibels (dBZ), radial speed from the ...
From the Telegraph to Doppler Radar: Communications, Technology, and the National Weather Service in North CarolinaJepsen, Thomas C.North Carolina Historical Review
The Weather Service Radar - 1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) radar network was completed in the early 1990s. One of many advances of this radar technology was the ability to estimate rainfall rates. This is accomplished through the application of an empirical relationship between radar reflectivity (Z) ...
Weather radar polarimetry has matured to a point that it is being implemented on the national network of WSR-88D Doppler radars. Phased array radar (PAR) technology has been successfully utilized in the military for more than five decades, and has recently been introduced to the weather radar ...
