Facility & Equipment Details
Description
The Radar Observatory at Lot 40 (South P) of Stony Brook University supports the operation of several radars, lidars and other remote sensors operated by the Radar Science group.
The radar science group focuses on the use of cm- and mm-wavelength radars to a wide range of fundamental scientific challenges including cloud and precipitation microphysics, cloud lifetime effects, atmospheric transport and turbulence and the study of complex, heterogeneous systems such as urban and coastal areas. Our group is interested in the practical use of space-borne and phased-array radars in weather and climate research, from extreme weather to wind and solar forecast.
