An Unattended Cloud-Profiling Radar for Use in Climate Research
Ken Moran,Brooks E. Martner,Madison J. Post,Robert A. Kropfli,David C. Welsh,Kevin B. Widener +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a millimeter-wave cloud radar (MMCR) was designed to provide detailed, long-term observations of nonprecipitating and weakly precipitating clouds at Cloud and Radiation Testbed (CART) sites of the Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) through the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program has supported the development of several millimeter-wavelength radars for the study of clouds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and Applications of ARM Millimeter-Wavelength Cloud Radars
Pavlos Kollias,Eugene E. Clothiaux,Thomas P. Ackerman,Bruce A. Albrecht,Kevin B. Widener,Ken Moran,Edward P. Luke,Karen Johnson,Nitin Bharadwaj,James B. Mead,Mark A. Miller,Johannes Verlinde,Roger Marchand,Gerald G. Mace +13 more
TL;DR: Koval et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a method to estimate the distance of a single photon from a single pixel to the Earth's magnetic field using the distance from the plane to the ground plane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scanning ARM Cloud Radars. Part I: Operational Sampling Strategies
TL;DR: In this paper, the first generation of sampling strategies for the scanning ARM cloud radars (SACRs) is presented, which are designed to address the scientific objectives of ARM; however, they introduce an initial framework for operational scanning cloud Radars.
