What data can meteorological Doppler radar mainly measure?

Meteorological radar is a radar specially used for atmospheric detection. Belonging to active microwave atmospheric remote sensing equipment. The high-altitude wind radar used with radiosonde is only a special equipment for positioning displacement balloons, and it is generally not considered as such radar. Meteorological radar is one of the main detection tools for early warning and forecasting typhoon, rainstorm clouds and other small and medium-sized weather systems.

Meteorological Doppler radar operating in 30 ~ 3000 MHz frequency band. Generally, it has high detection sensitivity. Because the detection height can reach 1 ~ 100 km, it is also called MST radar. It is mainly used to detect the vertical distribution of atmospheric dynamic parameters such as wind, atmospheric turbulence and atmospheric stability in a clear atmosphere.
