2. Australia's weather radars - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia's_weather_radars

   The transition to polarimetric (dual-polarised) radars began in 2017 with the upgrade of 4 Meteor 1500 radars located in Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Sydney. [7] The network has further been enhanced through the installation of 8 new polarimetric Meteor 735 radars across WA, [8] NSW [9] & Victoria, [10] and two polarimetric WRM200 radars [11] manufactured by Vaisala, one to replace the ...

   Weather radar in Norman, Oklahoma with rainshaft Weather (WF44) radar dish University of Oklahoma OU-PRIME C-band, polarimetric, weather radar during construction. Weather radar, also called weather surveillance radar (WSR) and Doppler weather radar, is a type of radar used to locate precipitation, calculate its motion, and estimate its type (rain, snow, hail etc.).

4. Crohamhurst Observatory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crohamhurst_Observatory

   Crohamhurst Observatory on its opening day, 1935. Crohamhurst Observatory was constructed in 1935 on Inigo Owen Jones' property Crohamhurst, near Peachester.It was built for use by Jones as the site of solar and planetary observations and weather measurements used in long-range weather forecasting, and as the headquarters of his forecasting service.

5. Bureau of Meteorology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bureau_of_Meteorology

   The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM or BoM) is an executive agency of the Australian Government responsible for providing weather services to Australia and surrounding areas. It was established in 1906 under the Meteorology Act, and brought together the state meteorological services that existed before then. [3]

6. Volumetric Imaging and Processing of Integrated Radar

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_Imaging_and...

   Volumetric Imaging and Processing of Integrated Radar, known by the acronym VIPIR, is an analysis and display program for Doppler weather radar, created and sold by Baron Services. [1] This software allows improved analysis of radar data for private users, in particular television stations, similar to the Weather Decision Support System program ...

7. dBZ (meteorology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBZ_(meteorology)

   The scale of dBZ values can be seen along the bottom of the image. dBZ is a logarithmic dimensionless technical unit used in radar.It is mostly used in weather radar, to compare the equivalent reflectivity factor (Z) of a remote object (in mm 6 per m 3) to the return of a droplet of rain with a diameter of 1 mm (1 mm 6 per m 3). [1]

8. Jindalee Operational Radar Network - Wikipedia

   three active radar stations: one near Longreach, Queensland (Radar 1), a second near Laverton, Western Australia (Radar 2), and a third near Alice Springs, Northern Territory (Radar 3); a control centre at RAAF Base Edinburgh in South Australia (JCC); seven transponders; and; twelve vertical ionosondes distributed around Australia and its ...

9. Mesoscale meteorology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoscale_meteorology

   Mesoscale meteorology studies weather systems like thunderstorm clusters too small to be resolved by the earliest weather observation networks. The earliest networks of weather observations in the late 1800s and early 1900s could detect the movement and evolution of larger, synoptic-scale systems like high and low-pressure areas. However ...
