Sentence examples for limitations of radar from inspiring English sources

What are the limitations of radar images?

This work aims to evaluate the potential benefits and limitations of radar rainfall estimates for the identification of debris flow occurrence rainfall thresholds.

Limitations of radar data for AGB estimation are saturation at middle-high biomass levels (depending on wavelength) as well as strong dependence on environmental conditions (e.g., rainfall, freezing, different moisture conditions).

The reflectivity limitations of radar are even more severe than those seen with Lidar; it is only able to detect metallic objects such as vehicles while objects such as pedestrians remain invisible to a radar sensor.

The main limitations of passive radars are due to the center frequency and the bandwidth of these signals.

Using a simple model, Reid (1987) demonstrated the limitations of Doppler radars with different beam geometries in measuring atmospheric parameters.

The results obtained permit to analyze the noises from urban environments for both magnetic and electromagnetic (multifrequency) techniques, and the limitations of ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey in agricultural areas with clayey soils and subhorizontal conductive layers.

No single sensor on any satellite mission, whether radar, lidar or optical, can be expected to provide consistently infallible estimates of biomass, but use of these measurements in a synergistic fashion can potentially overcome the limitations of each (whether radar saturation, lidar sampling modes, or optical temporal mismatches).

However, the distance of the volcano from the radar, the scanning strategy employed and the limitations of the C-band radar in detecting fine ash and distinguishing hydrometeors, result in large observational uncertainty in the inferred plume height of up to 2.5 km (Fig. 2 and Arason et al. 2011).

A limitation of the SuperDARN radar observation, as well as that of other radars, is that the radar obtains only line-of-sight (LOS) Doppler velocity.

Reid (1996) reviewed MF techniques in terms of their ability to make measurements of mean winds, atmospheric tides, and gravity waves, and Hocking (1997) considers the strengths and limitations of mesosphere stratosphere troposphere (MST) radar measurements of middle atmosphere winds with a focus directly related to MF and HF radar techniques.
