Abstract: This book reviews the principles of Doppler radar and emphasizes the quantitative measurement of meteorological parameters. It illustrates the relation of Doppler radar data and images to atmospheric phenomena such as tornadoes, microbursts, waves, turbulence, density currents, hurricanes, and lightning.
Geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, this text was written by two scientists at the National Severe Storms Laboratory in Norman, Oklahoma, a division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Topics include electromagnetic waves and propagation, weather signals and their Doppler spectra, weather signal processing, measurements of precipitation and turbulence, and observations of winds and storms as well as fair weather. Radar images and photographs of weather phenomena highlight the text.

Unambiguous Range Extension by Overlay Resolution in Staggered PRT Technique
M. Sachidananda,Dusan S. Zrnic +1 more
TL;DR: An algorithm is developed to separate overlaid echoes and estimate the spectral moments of both the overlaid signals in a Doppler weather radar that uses a staggered pulse repetition time (PRT) transmission scheme to mitigate the effects of range–velocity ambiguities.

Ice microphysics retrieval in the convective systems of the Indian Ocean during the CINDY–DYNAMO campaign
TL;DR: In this article, a French Falcon-20 flew inside the polarimetric radar area measuring the particle habits with several in-situ microphysical probes (FSSP, 2DS, CPI, PIP, 2DP, Nevzorov).

Unambiguous Delay-Doppler Recovery From Random Phase Coded Pulses
TL;DR: In this article, a random pulse phase coding approach was proposed to increase the unambiguous range region while preserving the Doppler region, which can be directly applied to either Nyquist or sub-Nyquist samples.
Convective Instability Underneath Midlevel Clouds: Comparisons between Numerical Simulations and VHF Radar Observations
TL;DR: In this article, numerically simulated MCT were compared with a turbulent layer detected by the very high frequency (VHF) middle and upper atmosphere (MU) radar during the passage of an upper-level front topped by clouds.

Impact from a Volumetric Radar-Sampling Operator for Radial Velocity Observations within EnKF Supercell Assimilation
TL;DR: Assimilation results indicate that the radar-sampling operator does not substantially improve the EnKF analyses or forecasts, and it greatly increases the computational cost of the data assimilation.
