S-Pol Moment Calculations

WISP04, NCAR Marshall Field Site
Feb/Mar/Apr 2004



S-Pol parameters are produced on the PIRAQ Signal Processor using formulae described in a paper by Zahrai and Zrnic JAOT Vol 10 #5 Oct 1993, "The 10 cm Wavelength Polarimetric Weather Radar at NOAA's National Severe Storm Laboratory".

The paper is available on-line from the American Meteorological Society. The following link may also work, depending upon your institution's subscription privileges:
