Weather Radar
Principles and Advanced Applications
Résumé
Weather radar systems provide data necessary for the
understanding of weather systems, improved forecasts
(especially critical for severe weather), hydrological
applications, flood warnings and also for climate research
in which ground verification is needed for global
precipitation measurements by satellites.
This book offers an accessible overview of advanced
methods, applications and modern research from the European
perspective. An extensive introductory chapter summarizes
the principles of weather radars and discusses the
potential of modern radar systems, including Doppler and
polarisation techniques, data processing, and
error-correction methods. Addressing both specialist
researchers and nonspecialists from related areas, this
book will also be useful for graduate students planning to
specialize in this field.
Written for:
Researchers and postgraduate students
