Abstract :
The method using geostationary satellites to determine hydrometeors parameters and to diagnose hazardous occurrences, such us: showers, hail formations, lightings, turbulences, etc are presented. The advantage of the multiposition bistatic radar system is a capability of detecting small objects (turbulences) owning to a sharp increase in the value of Radar cross-section of objects close to base line and its environmental safety.
