摘要
The error distributions of the wind fields retrieved from single and dual-Doppler radar observations are given in this paper.The results indicate that the error of dual-Doppler retrieval depends on the position in the scan region of the dual-Doppler radar.The error of single-Doppler retrieval by using velocity azimuth processing(VAP)technique de- pends on the angle between the directions of wind and the radar beam.Generally,the winds retrieved from single Doppl- er radar are close to those retrieved from dual-Doppler radar.But,the error distribution of the single-Doppler retrieval is different from the dual-Doppler retrieval.We simulate the retrievals of single Doppler observation by the use of the output wind data from a 3-D numerical model of severe convection.The comparison of the simulated single-and dual-Doppler retrievals shows that the VAP may be a suitable technique for the operational analysis of mesoscale wind fields.It can also be used as a supplement to wind field retrieval in the field experiment.
