Development and Validation of New Dual-doppler Analysis Techniques with Emphasis on the Vertical Velocity Problem

Abstract

The development of new dual-Doppler analysis techniques with an emphasis on improving estimates of the vertical velocity field. The objectives are two-fold. The first objective is to tackle a problem of longstanding interest in radar meteorology, the determination of the vertical velocity field from dual-Doppler radar measurements. A second objective is to train a student of US citizenry in methods of conventional and new dual-Doppler radar analysis, and in general, how to perform original research and to think critically about scientific and technological problems.
