  • Abstract
    This paper describes the latest adaptive scanning capabilities of the National Weather Radar Testbed Phased-Array Radar located in Norman, OK. Focused observations, tailored observations, and the required scheduling algorithms are introduced, and their performance is illustrated with real-data examples. It is demonstrated that adaptive scanning for weather radars has the potential to reduce revisit times and to provide meteorological data that can aid in the forecaster´s warning-decision process.
