Microwave radar signatures of precipitation from S band to Ka band: application to GPM mission
Radars at different frequencies have been used over five decades for observing precipitation. S and C bands have been employed for long range coverage observations. Dual-polarization X-band radars have been shown to be useful for networked applications. Space borne precipitation radars have been at Ku band, or higher frequencies such as Ka, as in the GPM mission. This paper presents a comprehen...
متن کاملAttenuation Correction for Ka-band Cloud Radar Using X-band Weather Radar Data
In order to correct attenuated millimeter-wavelength (Ka-band) radar data and address the problem of instability, an attenuation correction methodology (attenuation correction with variation trend constraint; VTC) was developed. Using synchronous observation conditions and multi-band radars, the VTC method adopts the variation trends of reflectivity in X-band radar data captured with wavelet tr...
متن کاملWater vapor and liquid water estimates using simultaneous S and Ka band radar measurements
Using simultaneous S and Ka band observations it is possible to retrieve a path integrated value of the water vapor content as well as cloud liquid water content values using the atmospheric and liquid water attenuation properties at the two frequencies. Recently the NCAR S-band dual polarimetric (S-Pol) radar has been upgraded to include simultaneous Ka-band radar measurements (Farquharson et ...
متن کاملLiquid water content estimates using simultaneous S and Ka band radar measurements
[1] A technique for the estimation of total liquid water content (LWC; the sum of cloud water and rainwater contents) using simultaneous S and Ka band scanning radar observations is proposed and tested using the National Center for Atmospheric Research simultaneous S band and Ka band dual‐polarimetric (S‐PolKa) radar system. The sources of error for this wavelength pair are evaluated, and the m...
متن کاملComparing and Merging Observation Data from Ka-Band Cloud Radar, C-Band Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave Radar and Ceilometer Systems
Field experiment in South China was undertaken to improve understanding of cloud and precipitation properties. Measurements of the vertical structures of non-precipitating and precipitating clouds were obtained using passive and active remote sensing equipment: a Ka-band cloud radar (CR) system, a C-band frequency modulated continuous wave vertical pointing radar (CVPR), a microwave radiometer ...
