چکیده

Extract main features exhibited in each type of data quality problems, and find proper QC parameters to quantify the extracted features. Monitor and record various QC parameters and related background information (by running the above real-time system). Collect independent observations from multiple sources (Dual-Polarization radar, radiosondes, wind profilers and satellites) for "ground truth" verifications of quality problems identified by QC parameters. Use the recorded QC parameter time series and "ground truth" verifications to develop statistically reliable data QC techniques.

4a.3 Studies of Phased-array Scan Strategies for Radar Data Assimilation

1. INTRODUCTION * Sponsored by multi-government agencies and especially by the US Navy, a phased-array weather radar has been constructed at NSSL Norman Oklahoma. This establishes the first National Weather Radar Testbed (NWRT) equipped with the solid-state phased-array antenna (Forsyth et al. 2005). One of the important and yet very challenging research goals at NWRT is to optimally design and...

8.2 New Weather-surveillance Capabilities for Nssl’s Phased-array Radar

The U.S. Government operates seven distinct radar networks providing weather and aircraft surveillance for public weather services, air traffic control, and homeland defense. A next-generation, multifunction phased array radar (MPAR) concept has been proposed that could provide enhanced weather and aircraft surveillance services with potentially lower life-cycle costs than multiple single-funct...
