Modeling rainfall drop size distribution moments using an S‐band polarimetric radar in complex terrain

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Using S‐band dual‐polarization radar and disdrometers during PRECIP 2022 in Taiwan, we analyze a Mei‐Yu frontal event with widespread stratiform rain and embedded convection. Multiple disdrometers are used to create a novel drop size distribution model for S‐band radars resolving both the drizzle and precipitation modes. The model reveals both inferred

Improved Cerrado Wetland Mapping Through Seasonal Moisture Metrics, Terrain Information and Semantic Segmentation

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Brazil's Cerrado valley wetlands—swamp savanna and gallery forest—are highly important for the biome's water cycle and carbon storage and are susceptible to degradation from the impacts of land use expansion and the climate crisis. In support of their detailed monitoring and assessment, we developed and tested a transferable mapping approach that ...

Toward an Improved Understanding of the Antarctic Coastal Zone and Its Contribution to Future Global Sea Level

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Understanding the coastal zone of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS), where it interacts with the Southern Ocean and warmer air masses, is crucial for predicting Antarctica's influence on the global climate and sea level. This region has multiple tipping mechanisms that could trigger large, rapid, and potentially irreversible changes in the AIS ...

Polarimetric Change Detection for Wetlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
An exciting development in wetland mapping and monitoring is the use of SAR polarimetry which uses both magnitude and phase of the backscattered radar signal for information extraction.

Impact of Convective Intensity on Mixed‐Phase Evolution and Upper Positive Charge Region Formation in an Isolated Convective Cloud

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Lightning initiation depends on the charge separation within the mixed‐phase areas of convective clouds, where graupel, ice, and supercooled water interact. However, the specific mixed‐phase structures that enhance charge separation remain unclear.

Feature Extraction for Moving Targets Based on the Statistical Characteristics of Echo Amplitude with the L-Band Fully Polarimetric Radar

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Non-imaging radar can achieve the detection and localization of moving targets, but it faces difficulties in the classification of targets. Aiming for the application of moving target classification by low/medium resolution non-imaging radar, this paper ...
