Professor engineers radar tools to monitor space weather
David Hysell, Professor of Engineering at Cornell University, is using funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to develop new radar tools and techniques for monitoring space weather, through both upgrades to the world’s largest radar and the creation of a new radar system at Cornell.
Upgraded radar can enable self-driving cars to see clearly no matter the weather
A new kind of radar could make it possible for self-driving cars to navigate safely in bad weather. Electrical engineers at the University of California San Diego developed a clever way to improve the imaging capability of existing radar sensors so that they accurately predict the shape and size of objects in the scene. The system worked well when tested at night and in foggy conditions.
Virginia Tech entomology expert is available to discuss the dragonfly migrations that some say are appearing on weather radars
Though dragonflies annually migrate south search of warmer waters to lay their eggs, they seem to be doing so in much larger numbers this year, a Virginia Tech expert said. Their swarms have been so large that meteorologists have said…
Many uses for high-frequency radar in the Great Lakes: warning ships, tracking spills, monitoring algal blooms
Lorelle Meadows is available to discuss high-frequency radar capabilities in freshwater applications and the importance of remote sensing in the Great Lakes. Lorelle Meadows is the dean of the Pavlis Honors College at Michigan Technological University and an oceanographer by…
