Observations of the Small-Scale Variability of Precipitation Using an Imaging Radar
2005
Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology
For many years, spatial and temporal inhomogeneities in precipitation fields have been studied using scanning radars, cloud radars, and disdrometers, for example. Each measurement technique has its own advantages and disadvantages. Conventional profiling radars point vertically and collect data while the atmosphere advects across the field of view. Invoking Taylor's frozen turbulence hypothesis, it is possible to construct time-history data, which are used to study the structure and dynamics of
