Observation of Mountain Waves and Secondary Gravity Waves in the Mesosphere Lower Thermosphere Above Patagonia

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract We find observational evidence for mountain waves (MWs) and secondary gravity waves (2GWs) in the OH*(3‐1) layer above Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. On the night of 21–22 May 2018, the Advanced Mesospheric Temperature Mapper (AMTM) obtained temperatures at ∼84 ${\sim} 84$ km.

Micro-Doppler Feature Extraction of Inverse Synthetic Aperture Imaging Laser Radar Using Singular-Spectrum Analysis

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Different from microwave radar, laser radar could be more sensitive to the micro-Doppler (m-D) effect due to its wave length. This limits the application of conventional methods, such as time–frequency based approach, since the processing needs a ...

Distribution and size of elements of Saturn's rings as inferred from 12-cm radar observations [PDF]

open access: yes
A 64m radar antenna was used to observe Saturn's rings at 12.6 cm wavelength, with reduced Doppler spread. The results show a positive radar return corresponding to about a 60 percent return from an isotropic scatterer with the projected area of the ...

Monostatic and Bistatic Radar Measurements of Birds and Micro-drone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper analyses the experimental results from recent monostatic and bistatic radar measurements of multiple birds as well as a quadcopter micro-drone. The radar system deployed for these measurements was the UCL developed NetRAD system.

Convective Organization in African Easterly Waves Observed During the NAMMA and CPEX‐CV Field Campaigns

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Fundamental questions remain about where and when convection will occur within African easterly waves. In this study, we aim to better understand the dynamical processes that govern moist convective organization at the meso‐alpha scale in tropical easterly waves using NASA airborne field campaigns and satellite observations.

Plume‐Coupled Long‐Range Spotting Drove the Explosive Spread of the 2018 Camp Fire

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Extreme fire spread during the 2018 Camp Fire in northern California was driven by organized long‐range spotting tightly coupled to plume dynamics. Doppler radar and satellite observations reveal distinct regions of ember lofting and downwind fallout within the convective column, forming direct pathways for firebrand transport several (up to ...

Discrete radar based on modulo arithmetic

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing
Zak-OTFS is a modulation scheme where signals are formed in the delay–Doppler (DD) domain, converted to the time domain (DD) for transmission and reception, then returned to the DD domain for processing.

Application of Micro-Doppler Signatures for Estimation of Total Energy Expenditure in Humans for Walking/Running Activities

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2016
We investigate the feasibility of estimating the total energy expenditure (TEE) of a human for walking/running activities with micro-Doppler signatures. Doppler radar can capture micro-Doppler signatures produced from limb motions when a human moves.

The Adelaide VHF radar: Capabilities and future plans [PDF]

open access: yes
The VHF radar at Buckland Park, South Australia commenced operation in January, 1984. The radar is located adjacent to the 2-MHz ionospheric radar. The routine method for measuring horizontal wind velocity is the space antenna technique (SA) while the ...

Quantifying Tropical Cyclone Vertical Mass Flux and Its Relationship to Precipitation Structures Under Varying Sea Surface Temperatures

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Vertical mass flux (MF) describes the rate at which air and water vapor move upward or downward in an atmospheric column. MF is related to cloud and precipitation formation. This work examines the relationship between MF and characteristics of tropical cyclones (TCs) in idealized Weather Research and Forecasting model simulations.
