1. The Radar Palette Analyzing and Diagnosing Patterns in Radar Conventional Doppler Dual Polarized This module operates like a normal PowerPoint. Click on each slide to build/reveal the information. Otherwise, navigate between presentations using the linked text and thumbnails provided. Please consider this as a trial of a concept. Many PPT’s are included only as “place holders” awaiting the insertion of content. See “ReadMe” (doc -preferred or txt linked) and the Notes Pages on each slide for more details.

5. Conceptual Model Home Conceptual Models to Signatures – Up or Down? The proceeding approach to analyzing and diagnosing the atmosphere was the “drill down” conceptual model to signature method. The linkage between conceptual model to signature can also be established using a “percolate up” approach. The characteristics and the advantages of each are described in the following presentation. The Radar Palette with a “Percolate Up” approach follows this presentation. Conceptual Models
