Radiometeoroloogias
Radiometeoroloogia, also known as radar meteorology, is a branch of meteorology that uses radar to study and forecast atmospheric phenomena. Radar systems emit radio waves that are reflected by precipitation particles, such as rain, snow, and hail, as well as by other atmospheric targets like insects and birds. By analyzing the characteristics of the reflected waves, meteorologists can gather information about the location, intensity, movement, and type of precipitation. This allows for the detection of weather systems like thunderstorms, hurricanes, and fronts, and provides crucial data for short-term weather forecasts, known as nowcasting.
The Doppler effect is a key principle in modern radiometeorology. Doppler radar can measure the velocity of
