The transition to polarimetric (dual-polarised) radars began in 2017 with the upgrade of 4 Meteor 1500 radars located in Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Sydney. [7] The network has further been enhanced through the installation of 8 new polarimetric Meteor 735 radars across WA, [8] NSW [9] & Victoria, [10] and two polarimetric WRM200 radars [11] manufactured by Vaisala, one to replace the ...
The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM or BoM) is an executive agency of the Australian Government responsible for providing weather services to Australia and surrounding areas. It was established in 1906 under the Meteorology Act, and brought together the state meteorological services that existed before then. [ 3 ]

Weather radar, also called weather surveillance radar (WSR) and Doppler weather radar, is a type of radar used to locate precipitation, calculate its motion, and estimate its type (rain, snow, hail etc.).
Marburg lies on the river Lahn, 25 km north of Gießen. The federal road Bundesstraße 3 connects it with Gießen and Kassel . It is served by Marburg (Lahn) station (long-distance and local trains) and Marburg Süd station (local trains).
For instance, digital radar systems made it possible to track thunderstorms, providing users with the ability to acquire detailed information of each storm tracked, since the late 1980s. They are first identified by matching precipitation raw data to a set of preprogrammed characteristics into the system, including signs of organization in the ...
Vertical cross-section of a thunderstorm at the top and VIL value of 63 kg/m 2 or 63 mm of rain with that cell at the bottom (red one) Vertically integrated liquid (VIL) is an estimate of the total mass of precipitation in the clouds. The measurement is obtained by observing the reflectivity of the air which is obtained with weather radar. [1]
The detection performance of the Zaslon radar is stated to be 200 km against a target with a radar cross section (RCS) of 16 m 2, the radar can track up to 10 targets while engaging 4 of those at any one time with either R-33 radar guided or R-40, R-60 IR-guided air-to-air missiles. [5] The Zaslon was the Soviet Union's second look-down/shoot ...
Marburg grew rapidly in the first half of the twentieth century, as the main road from Brisbane to Toowoomba passed through the town's centre. Marburg became popular as a stopover for travellers. Marburg was the administrative centre for local government in the area, composing Walloon Division (1879-1903) and Shire of Walloon (1903-1917). [20]
