Polarimetric Adaptive Coherent Detection in Lognorm-Texture-Distributed Sea Clutter
This paper addresses polarimetric adaptive coherent detection of radar targets embedded in sea clutter. Initially, radar clutter data across multiple polarimetric channels is modeled using a compound Gaussian framework featuring an unspecified speckle ...

Modification of 11‐cm Doppler radar, to permit measurement of the complete polari‐metric matrix of signals backscattered from meteorological media, was recently completed by the Ground Based Remote Sensing Branch of the Geophysics Laboratory, U.S. Air Force Base, Hanscom, Mass. It is believed that this radar is the only meteorological research radar in

Abstract Multi‐angle polarimetric instruments (MAPs) enable the retrieval of essential aerosol properties over oceanic regions. MAPs retrieval algorithms commonly use a 1‐parameter ocean bio‐optical model (OBM), based on chlorophyll‐a concentration only to represent optical properties over open waters (case‐1), whereas the coastal water (mixture of ...

A new clutter suppression technique that uses both Doppler and polarimetric information is presented. Polarimetric properties of the target and clutter are calculated per Doppler frequency cell and based on this information clutter suppression is ...

SNR and Noise Variance Estimation in Polarimetric SAR Data [PDF]
The problem of estimating the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the cross-polarised channels and the noise variance in polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data is dealt with.

A polarimetric Doppler radar time‐series simulator for biological applications [PDF]
The high mobility of airborne organisms makes them inherently difficult to study, motivating the use of radars and radar networks as biological surveillance tools.

Abstract Ground deformation of dormant volcanoes provides critical insights into subsurface processes and potential hazards. Here we present Sentinel‐1 Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) time series (2015–2020) for Changbaishan volcano, the largest intraplate volcanic system in East Asia. We detect persistent subsidence of up to 3.5 mm/yr

Abstract Accurate representation of raindrop size distribution (DSD) is crucial for understanding precipitation microphysics and improving quantitative precipitation forecasting. Conventional methods in numerical models often prescribe the DSD shape parameter as a constant or derive it from empirical relationships based solely on disdrometer ...

This paper summarises a coordinated field campaign in southern England in summer 2023 as part of the ParaChute programme, which studied atmospheric turbulence to improve weather and climate models. The field campaign used ground‐based instruments, aircraft and drones to observe turbulence and storms, creating datasets to develop better turbulence ...

Probable Maximum Precipitation: The Smethport Challenge
Abstract The 18 July 1942 Smethport, Pennsylvania storm produced US and world record rainfall accumulations of 165 mm in 10 min, 240 mm in 25 min and 780 mm in 270 min. Observations from the Smethport storm control sub‐daily Probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP) estimates over a large region of the eastern US.
