Tune into any TV weather report and you’ll hear the words “Doppler radar” as meteorologists track storms across California. But how does Doppler radar work? And how accurate is it? The concept of ...

The autonomous and compact High-altitude Imaging Wind and Rain Profiler, or HIWRAP, a dual-frequency conical-scanning Doppler radar, will hang under NASA's aircraft's belly as it flies above ...

Dual-pol doppler radar is a relatively new upgrade to the original doppler radar technology and towers that the National Weather Service offices around the U.S. use. The upgrade helps better determine ...

You might have seen a WDAY weather promotion on television talking about how we use the Dual-Pol Doppler technology. The promotion, however, does not get into what this thing is. Dual-Pol is short for ...

Radar is quite spectacular in telling us exactly where rain is falling by pinging precipitation with radio waves! Our weather radar can determine more than just a storm’s location, but its movement as ...

Most aircraft carrying Doppler radar look like they've grown a tail, developed a dorsal fin, or sprouted a giant pancake on their backs. But when the unmanned Global Hawk carries a radar system this ...

WINK, the Weather Authority, was already the station viewers in Southwest Florida trusted most for storm coverage— especially during hurricane season. Now WINK’s storm reporting is even stronger ...

Radar technology is mainly known for generating weather data and for the surveillance of aircraft. Less well known are its applications in the study of migratory birds, bats, and insects, which ...

Combining concepts from Doppler-free spectroscopy, coherent quantum control and frequency comb spectroscopy leads to new opportunities for the precision excitation of atomic species with high ...
