Solar microbursts at meter-dekameter wavelengths
The Astrophysical Journal, 1986 Microbursts are low-brightness temperature bursts observed by the Clark Lake radioheliograph. The bursts occur several times per hour during quiet Sun periods and are seen at the observing frequencies from 30 to 70 MHz. They are stationary at a given frequency, have short rise times, and durations of 2-10 s. Observations of the bursts are presented and

NASA wind shear flight test in situ results [PDF]
The main objectives in developing the NASA in situ windshear detection algorithm were to provide a measurement standard for validation of forward-look sensors under development, and to demonstrate the algorithm's ability to operate with a suitably low ...
