Identifying insects, clouds, and precipitation using vertically pointing polarimetric radar Doppler velocity spectra

<p>This study presents a method to identify and distinguish insects, clouds, and precipitation in 35 GHz (Ka-band) vertically pointing polarimetric radar Doppler velocity power spectra and then produce masks indicating the occurrence of hydrometeors (i.e., clouds or precipitation) and insects...
