Title:Synthetic dual-doppler analysis of mesoscale convective systems
Publication:Mon. Wea. Rev., 122, 2105-2124
Abstract:The synthetic dual-Doppler (SDD) analysis technique is applied to the 6-7 May 1985 mesoscale convective system (MCS) that occurred during the Oklahoma-Kansas Preliminary Regional Experiment-STORM Central. This system had a cyclonic mesoscale circulation in its stratiform precipitation region. The SDD analyses are compared to corresponding actual dual-Doppler analyses. The sensitivity of the former to various parameters is discussed.

Abstract:A variational method for retrieval of the three-dimensional wind field from single-Doppler radar observations is developed and tested. The method uses the conservation equation for reflectivity and the continuity equation as a constraining model. Weak and strong constraint formalisms in data analysis are reviewed and compared using a one-dimensional

Abstract:The specific differential polarization phase shift Kdp has been suggested as a possible estimatior of rainfall as well as a rain-hail discriminator in several recent studies. Here, the complex multivariate Gaussian model, used widely in communication theory and statistical optics, is applied for modeling Kdp caused by precipitaion.

Abstract:A new parameterization scheme for the shortwave radiative properties of water clouds is presented, using versatile cloud drop size distributions (DSDs). As for single-scattering properties, a new parameterization for cloud optical thickness Tao is proposed by using the separation of the dependence of Tao on the total number of the DSDs, the cloud thickness, and the liquid water content, combined with equivalent radius.

Five classes of vertical profiles of reflectivity in rain were identified, with three of them having precipitation undergoing a transition between the solid and liquid phase.

The radar's excellent sensitivity and resolution allowed even very weak, finescale features of the cloud to be resolved. The mammatus were located 3-5 km above ground along the underneath side of an anvil-like stratiform region of the storm cloud and preceeded the arrival of precipitaion.

The model data used to train the neutral network assume a gamma particle size distribution function and a size-density relationship having a decreasing density with size.

Title:Diagnostic of Supercooled Clouds from Single-Doppler Observations in Regions of Radar-Detectable Snow
Publication:J. Appl. Met., 39, 1041-1058

Title:CloudSat spaceborne 94 GHz radar bright bands in the melting layer: An attenuation-driven upside-down lidar analog
Publication:Geophys. Res. Lett., Vol. 34, No. 16, L16818, doi:10.1029/2007GL030291.
Abstract:The CloudSat satellite supports a W-band (94 GHz) cloud profiling radar. At this 3.2 mm wavelength, ground-based measurements of rainfall associated with melting snowflakes do not show the radar reflectivity peak that is characteristic of bright band measurements at longer (Rayleigh scattering-dominated) wavelengths.
