RADAR OBSERVATIONS IN METEOROLOGY

Abstract

The article deals with the basic conceptual definition of radar meteorology, briefly describes meteorological radars. It discusses the principles of measurements by radars and sources of error in these measurements. It analyses the outputs of meteorological radars and discusses interpretations of radar observations. In conclusion, in the article the current state of aeronautical meteorological radars in the SR is analysed and proposals to improve the current weather radar network in terms of the location of these radars and also their performance parameters are proposed.
