摘要

During the Spring of 2014 a Phase-Tilt Weather Radar (PTWR) developed by the University of Massachusetts was deployed within the Dallas-Fort Worth Urban Testbed operated by the CASA Engineering Research Center. During an eight-week period it observed several weather events including severe thunderstorms and stratiform rain. Observations by the phased-array radar were compared to a nearby mechanically-scanned dual-polarized radar employing a parabolic dish with the objective of assessing the relative severity of biases in polarimetric observations by the PTWR. Such biases are due to polarization-basis rotation due to scanning along a tilted axis. It is expected these would be negligible except possibly at large (> 10°) elevation angles. At lower elevation angles where near-direct comparisons were possible, differences in observations were not uniquely attributable to this souce of error.
