Processing oversampled signals in range with a whitening transformation has been proposed as a means to reduce the variance of meteorological variable estimates on polarimetric Doppler weather radars. However, the original formulation to construct decorrelation transformations does not account for mismatches in the polarimetric channels, which results in abnormally biased polarimetric variable ...

InMurtagh and Sarazin (1993), the ability to regress seeing on a set of near-ground meteorological variables was assessed. The present article proceeds towards the following operational framework: we obtain median seeing estimates for the night, given knowledge of ambient ground meteorological conditions. The data used are extensive meteorological and seeing measurements made at European Southe...

In many malarious regions malaria transmission roughly coincides with rainy seasons, which provide for more abundant larval habitats. In addition to precipitation, other meteorological and environmental factors may also influence malaria transmission. These factors can be remotely sensed using earth observing environmental satellites and estimated with seasonal climate forecasts. The use of rem...
