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 128 km Gympie (Mt Kanigan) Radar Loop in the south west of the locality is a doppler radar station that is part of the National Radar Loop of the Bureau of Meteorology. [11] The land use is predominantly grazing on native vegetation with small amounts of crop growing and rural residential housing. [12]
Each had until 2018 a range of 256 km (159 mi) in radius around the site to detect reflectivity, 3 angles with a range of 128 km (80 mi), for detecting velocity pattern (Doppler effect), and an extra long range up to 240 km (150 mi) at low elevation angle but strongly folded or aliased (where the maximum unambiguous velocity interval (±Vmax ...

The very next day, the Bureau of Meteorology noted that the system had once again returned to the Australian basin, and was located approximately 1,000 km (620 mi) northwest of the Cocos Islands, marking the tropical low's third period of existence in the Australian region in just five days.
Based on experience with CAP 1.0, the OASIS Emergency Management Technical Committee adopted an updated CAP 1.1 specification in October 2005. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] At a meeting in Geneva in October 2006 the CAP 1.1 specification was taken under consideration by the International Telecommunication Union 's Standardization Sector for adoption as an ITU-T ...
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 ...
