Info

HOW DOES DUAL-POL WORK? By transmitting both horizontally and vertically polarized signals, increased information will be available including information about the shape of the hydrometeors with dual <strong>polarization</strong> radar.
DUAL-POL BASE DATA All of the “legacy” products will be available that are currently being created: -Base Velocity (V) - Spectrum Width (SW) - Reflectivity for Horizontal Polarization (Z) New products that will be available: - Differential Reflectivity (ZDR) - Correlation Coefficient (CC) We will examine these more closely in a bit. - Differential Phase (DP)
