Radar characteristics of cloud fields

Relations of several statistical parameters of the radio echo field to the types of cloud systems and weather phenomena in the cloud field are studied. Combinations of the statistical characteristics of radio echo are found which in certain cases permit the unique classification of cloud field according to the types of phenomena. The space-time variability of the radar characteristic was examined in connection with the transformation of the cloud field, and the question of the variation of the statistical characteristics of the echoes from cloud field was examined in connection with changes in the dimensions of the quantization cell.

Methods of discriminating cloud systems by their radar characteristics

The connection of the radar characteristics of cloud systems with the genetics of their formation, the microphysical structure, and the spatial extent of the clouds is examined. The relation of the probability of detecting clouds at various distances by their microphysical structure and the capabilities of the equipment are also considered. A method of discriminating cloud systems is proposed on the basis of obtained relations.

The problem of regime summaries of the data from radar observations

Peculiarities of the radar information about clouds are examined in comparison with visual data. An objective radar classification is presented and the relation of it to the meteorological classification is shown. The advisability of storage and summarization of the primary radar data for regime purposes is substantiated.

Optimal form and frequency of presentation of radar data on clouds and phenomena connected with them

The available data on the space and time structure of the radio echoes from different clouds is examined. On the basis of their analysis, a basis is given for the optimal form of presentation and the operational quality of renewal of radar information used for operational purposes in ZGMO and the TGMTs.
