  1. ATMOS 312 RADAR METEOROLOGY Chapter 1: COURSE OVERVIEW

  2. Chapter 2: Electric and Magnetic fields Electromagnetic Propagation Electromagnetic Spectrum Polarization Beam propagation through the atmosphere Anomalous propagation

  3. Chapter 3: Basic components of a radar, Characteristics of a microwave pulse, how microwave pulses are generated, transmitted, and received, quantities describing radar properties.

  4. Chapter 4: Radar displays Plan Position Indicator display Range Height Indicator display

  5. In Chapter 4, We will discuss the appearance of echoes, for example convective and stratiform, banded and not banded, and the reason for these different types of organization

  6. We will also discuss displays of derived quantities and displays from non-conventional radars such as airborne radars

  7. Chapters 5 and 6 Radar equations: Solitary targets Distributed targets Weather targets

  8. Chapter 7: Relationship of Radar Reflectivity to other meteorological quantities Drop size distribution Rainfall Liquid water content
