The radiated radar energy reflects best when the bipolar (positive and negative) water molecules are able to align. When water freezes, the water molecules are locked into an ice crystal lattice and are unable to align to reflect radar energy efficiently. (example: microwave) ? Water (rain) is an excellent radar reflector. ? Dry snow and ice crystals are very poor reflectors of radar energy. ? Wet hail provides the strongest reflection of radar energy. ? Dry hail reflects some radar energy simply due to its size. Reflectivity characteristics 3 电子信息工程学院 Airborne Weather Radar Con2-1 Aviation weather--rain A thunderstorm posed of three parts : ? The bottom portion of the storm, below the freezing level, posed entirely of liquid precipitation (., rain ) and is the most reflective portion of the storm. ? The middle portion of a thunderstorm occurs above the freezing level (0 o C) and up to the altitude where the outside air temperature drops below – 40 o C. This section of the storm posed of bination of ice crystals and supercooled water. ? The top of a thunderstorm posed entirely of ice crystals and reflects very little radar energy. At temperatures less than – 40 o C, liquid water no longer exists and only ice crystals are present.
