pyart.retrieve.compute_Doppler_velocity#

pyart.retrieve.compute_Doppler_velocity(spectra, sdBZ_field=None)[source]#

Computes the Doppler velocity from the spectral reflectivity

Parameters:

  • spectra (Radar spectra object) – Object containing the required fields

  • sdBZ_field (str) – Name of the field that contains the spectral reflectivity. None will use the default field name in the Py-ART configuration file.

Returns:

vel_dict (field dictionary) – Field dictionary containing the Doppler velocity
