Ground-based weather radars emerged during World War II and have since been used to observe precipitation, mostly over land. Ground-based radars send out pulses of microwave energy in narrow beams that scan in a circular pattern. When the microwave pulse encounters precipitation particles in the atmosphere, the energy is scattered in all directions, sending some energy back to the radar. These measurements are used to estimate intensity, altitude, precipitation type (e.g., rain, snow, hail), and motion. Obtaining continuous measurements of precipitation from ground-based systems (e.g., from rain gauges and radar systems) presents a challenge due to large gaps between monitoring sites on land and huge gaps over the ocean.  1, fiche 1, Anglais, - ground%2Dbased%20weather%20radar

La dispersión de las ondas electromagnéticas en longitudes de onda de unos milímetros a varios centímetros, producida por las gotas de agua o de nubes, se utiliza para determinar la distancia, el tamaño, la forma, la ubicación, el movimiento y la fase (líquida y sólida), así como la intensidad de la precipitación.

Doppler weather radar. For many years radar has been used to provide information about the intensity and extent of rain and other forms of precipitation. ... A major improvement in the capability of weather radar came about when engineers developed new radars that could measure the Doppler frequency shift in addition to the magnitude of the echo signal reflected from precipitation. The Doppler frequency shift is important because it is related to the radial velocity of the precipitation blown by wind (the component of the wind moving either toward or away from the radar installation). Since tornadoes, mesocyclones (which spawn tornadoes), hurricanes, and other hazardous weather phenomena tend to rotate, measurement of the radial wind speed as a function of viewing angle will identify rotating weather patterns.  3, fiche 4, Anglais, - Doppler%20weather%20radar

Un radar météorologique en bande C comporte une antenne parabolique qui émet un faisceau d'ondes électromagnétiques dans la bande de fréquences des 5 GHz [gigahertz]. En se déplaçant dans les plans vertical et horizontal, le radar scrute l'espace environnant. Il a une portée d'environ 100 km. Les ondes émises ont la propriété de se refléter sur les gouttes de pluie, les grêlons et la neige. Leurs échos, qui correspondent à une infime partie de l'onde reçue, sont reçus par le radar qui les analyse grâce à sa grande sensibilité. Le radar en déduit la distance qui le sépare des gouttes et localise ainsi les zones de précipitations.  2, fiche 8, Français, - radar%20m%C3%A9t%C3%A9orologique%20en%20bande%20C

The Next Generation Weather Radar system (NEXRAD) comprises approximately 160 Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) sites throughout the United States and selected overseas locations. This system is a joint effort of the United States Departments of Commerce (DOC), Defense (DOD), and Transportation (DOT). The controlling agencies are the National Weather Service (NWS), Air Weather Service (AWS) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), respectively. Level II data are the three meteorological base data quantities: reflectivity, mean radial velocity, and spectrum width. From these quantities, computer processing generates numerous meteorological analysis products known as Level III data. Level II data are recorded at all NWS and most AWS and FAA WSR-88D sites. Level III products are recorded at the 120 NWS sites. The data are sent to the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) for archiving and dissemination.  3, fiche 17, Anglais, - next%2Dgeneration%20weather%20radar%20system
