Close-Range Observations of Tornadoes in Supercells Made with a Dual-Polarization, X-Band, Mobile Doppler Radar (2007, background): “The elevation angles of the antenna were approximately 2.5° and 3° on 12 May, and 5.1° and 4.8° on 29 May; thus, the approximate height of the center of the radar beam on 12 May was (cid:5) 175–210 m AGL and on 29 May was (cid:5) 675 m–1.25 km AGL.”
The Three-Dimensional Structure and Evolution of a Tornado Boundary Layer (2013, background): “Although mobile radar observations of the tornado core ﬂow have become more frequent (e.g., Wurman et al. 1996; Wurman and Gill 2000, hereafter WG00; Bluestein et al. 2003; Bluestein et al. 2004; Lee and Wurman 2005, hereafter LW05; Wurman et al. 2007a, hereafter W07; Tanamachi et al. 2007; Kosiba…”
Vortex Structure and Evolution within Bow Echoes. Part I: Single-Doppler and Damage Analysis of the 29 June 1998 Derecho (2004, background): “Weak echo holes are commonly observed with strong circulations (e.g., Wakimoto and Martner 1992; Wurman and Gill 2000 ).”
Centrifuging of Hydrometeors and Debris in Tornadoes: Radar-Reflectivity Patterns and Wind-Measurement Errors (2005, background): “Therefore, the lack of a strong low-level convergence signature in radar observations of tornadoes (Wurman et al. 1996; Wurman and Gill 2000; Bluestein et al. 2003) could be explained to some degree by centrifuging”
The Multiple-Vortex Structure of a Tornado (2002, background): “The vortices caused a degradation of the typical clear eye structure observed frequently in received power data (Wurman and Gill 2000, hereinafter WG; Burgess et al. 2002, hereinafter B) obtained in tornadoes not exhibiting strong multiple vortices.”
Diagnosed Three-Dimensional Axisymmetric Structure of the Mulhall Tornado on 3 May 1999 (2005, background): “These datasets with unprecedented resolution have revealed detailed reflectivity and velocity structures at the tornado scale (Wurman and Gill 2000, hereafter WG00; W02; Bluestein et al. 2003a,b; Part I; Part II). downdraft along the central axis of a tornado indicating a partial two-cell vortex…”
