摘要

We presented here the results of Doppler weather radar measurements of migrating birds, performed in the "fixed-beam" mode of operation. The observation time window of each resolution cell (~4s), much longer than in the case of operative weather radars, allowed to provide accurate estimates of reflectivity and Doppler moments: reflectivity values were mainly comprised between 0 and 15 dBZ (tail-view according to prevalent migratory direction observed on PPIs). Velocities were basically within the interval 8.3-16.7 m/s (30-60 km/h), while measured spectral widths were usually below 1 m/s. Time histories of associated echoes showed the typical amplitude modulation associated to wingbeating. 90% of wingbeat frequencies were in the interval 5-25 Hz: two distinct groups with a different combination wingbeat frequency-velocity were visible, suggesting the idea that faster birds flap their wings at a lower rate. In order to gather more information about reflectivity values associated to birds, further measurements are needed considering different view angles; in view of species identification, correlation of velocity and wingbeat with additional variables like the presence or absence of gliding flight intervals, the extent of signal amplitude modulation, the time and height of flight could prove useful.
