Application of Nonuniform Beam Filling (NUBF) Doppler Velocity Error Correction on Airborne Radar Measurements |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Nonuniform beam filling (NUBF) within an atmospheric radar sampling volume can cause significant Doppler velocity errors when the radar is located on a fast-moving platform. A case of strong NUBF errors was identified in ER-2 X-band Radar (EXRAD) data from the Investigation of Microphysics and Precipitation for Atlantic Coast-Threatening Snowstorms (IMPACTS) 2020 field campaign. A basic NUBF correction was employed using an estimate of the along-track radar reflectivity gradient. The relationship is verified empirically using colocated Doppler velocity measurements from the higher resolution cloud radar system (CRS). |
