Abstract:The characteristics and capabilities, meteorological application products and their software of the currently networking radars in China are described and examples of hail cloud identifying and tracking, mesoscale cyclones and heavy rainfall are presented. The New-Generation Weather Radar Network of China has the considerable capabilities in monitoring and warning severe weather, in estimating quantitatively large-scale precipitation (typhoon), and in deriving wind-field messages from echo signals. It is a comprehensive intelligent system with the capabilities of sounding, analyzing, predicting and warning combined.
