Climatological Description of Seasonal Variations in Lower-Tropospheric Temperature Inversion Layers over the Indochina Peninsula
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used operational rawinsonde data to investigate seasonal variations in static stability in order to understand the behavior of temperature inversion layers, that is, extremely stable layers in the lower troposphere over the Indochina Peninsula region, at the southeastern edge of the Asian continent.
Operational Rainfall Estimation by X-band MP Radar Network in MLIT, Japan
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the specifications of MLIT X-band MP radars, and the operational data processing to estimate a distribution of rainfall intensity using MLIT MP radar data.

Cumulus cloud precipitation as revealed by radar-arizona 1955
TL;DR: In this paper, an AN/TPS-10 radar was used to make extensive measurements of radar returns from cumulus clouds in the vicinity of Tucson, with a view toward establishing the level of first formation of precipitation, day-to-day variation, average dimensions of first echo, average duration, and fraction reaching ground.
