Numerical simulations of mesoscale convective systems: techniques for comparison with observations and a high resolution analysis of flow patterns in the convective region and transition zone of a simulated mcs
… two research aircraft using the well-documented contoured frequency by altitude (CFAD) technique to compare vertical variability between the model and the observations. In addition, in order to quantify horizontal variability, a contoured frequency by distance diagram (CFDD) and average altitude …

Exploring methods to extract vertical motions in winter storms
… Radar (WCR) aboard the NSF/NCAR C-130 using Contoured Frequency by Altitude Diagrams (CFADs). The WCR analysis shows a narrow spread in velocities with 1-2 ms-1 wide distributions in the lower stratiform portions of the cloud, and wider distributions with 3+ ms-1 spread in velocities in the …
