of cumulonimbus clouds Thunderstorms are typically associated with cumulonimbus clouds—towering, dense formations with significant vertical development. These clouds often resemble mountains or vast towers and can spread out at the top into an anvil shape, especially when upper-level winds carry the cloud

something new and useful. It’s also a good feeling to know that the work I do is helping keep people safe, by helping the radars to function and get important information to the right people. Going up to the radars is fun, too – it’s nice to get a change of scene and you get great views because they’re all located in towers on top of hills. It’s pretty epic!

, and long-term monitoring of soil temperatures and carbon emissions. Currently, permafrost properties and carbon emissions are only monitored at a few locations, via boreholes and flux towers. These need to be maintained and extended over the coming decades. Emissions are hard to monitor and may

as point targets in the estimated noise NCP (Non-Coherent Power) ● Strong fixed targets (e.g. power lines or towers) also cause peaks in NCP but due to phase-noise ● Differentiation with CR (Clutter Ratio) moment, computed by ENIGMA signal processor: Small for wind turbine targets Large for strong fixed

and carbon emissions are only monitored at a few locations, via boreholes and flux towers. These need to be maintained and extended over the coming decades. Emissions are hard to monitor and may not be representative of other locations. Thermokarst landscape changes are currently not predictable. What

Land Models”, 21st May, here • Simulations of latent, sensible heat, carbon fluxes at 154 flux tower sites. • 20 different international land models. • Linear regression, cluster and regression, LSTM, random forest as benchmarks – all out of sample • Land model provided with observed vegetation

with both the mid-latitude Northern Hemisphere background levels and with the more polluted air arising from Europe. The observation network in the UK has been expanded to include three additional stations; Angus Tower near Dundee, Tacolneston near Norwich and Ridge Hill near Hereford. Ridge Hill

observations.  The researchers collaborated with Brazilian scientists from the Amazon Tall Tower Observatory project to combine the state-of-the-art satellite data and ground based observations to quantify methane emissions from Brazil. Study author Anita Ganesan from the University of Bristol

your job? It’s always rewarding to see how software I’ve written makes the radar do something new and useful.

obstacles. For accurate and consistent readings, the ideal site for wind measurement is over level ground with uniform roughness and no large obstructions within 300 metres of the measuring tower. While it can be hard for each station to meet these criteria perfectly, most locations in the observing
