An Investigation of NEXRAD-Based Quantitative Precipitation Estimates in Alaska [PDF]
Precipitation estimation by weather radars in Alaska is challenging. In this study, we investigate National Weather Service (NWS) precipitation products that are produced from the seven NEXRAD radar sites in Alaska.

Cross-Evaluation of Reflectivity from NEXRAD and Global Precipitation Mission during Extreme Weather Events [PDF]
During extreme events such as tropical cyclones, the precision of sensors used to sample the meteorological data is vital to feed weather and climate models for storm path forecasting, quantitative precipitation estimation, and other atmospheric ...

Evaluating the Polarimetric Radio Occultation Technique Using NEXRAD Weather Radars
Currently, it remains a challenge to effectively monitor areas experiencing intense precipitation and the associated atmospheric conditions on a global scale. This challenge arises due to the limitations on both active and passive remote sensing methods.

Effects of Probabilistic Risk Situation Awareness Tool (RSAT) on Aeronautical Weather-Hazard Decision Making [PDF]
We argue that providing cumulative risk as an estimate of the uncertainty in dynamically changing risky environments can help decision-makers meet mission-critical goals.

An attempt to calibrate the UHF strato-tropospheric radar at Arecibo using NexRad radar and disdrometer data [PDF]
The goal of this paper is to present a methodology to calibrate the reflectivity of the UHF Strato-Tropospheric (ST) radar located at NAIC in Puerto Rico. The UHF lower relevant altitude is at 5.9km, the melting layer being at around 4.8km.
