Abstract:A technique has been developed for generating “shadow maps” (the shadow that an array of showers would cast on the earth's surface) in the microwave radiation from a hypothetical source in a geostationary satellite at specified azimuth and altitude. The input data for this technique are weather‐radar records on digital magnetic tape. To describe and demonstrate the technique and its intended use, this paper contains just one shadow map at high resolution (approaching that of the radar record), one sequence of … Show more
