Session 7A Advances in Radar Usage for Weather Analysis and Forecasting - I

Wednesday, 15 January 2020: 8:30 AM-10:00 AM
258A (Boston Convention and Exhibition Center)

Chair:
Gregory J. Stumpf, CIMMS/Univ. of Oklahoma and NOAA/NWS/Meteorological Development Laboratory, Norman, OK

Description:

This session will be hosted by the 30th Conference on Weather Analysis and Forecasting (30WAF). We welcome abstracts on the use of new radar data (mobile radars, phased-array, dual-polarization products, etc.) and novel applications of pre-existing radar data.
