Doppler is the principle discovered by Austrian
scientist Christian Doppler in 1842 that describes the
characteristics of sound waves or radio waves that travel
from a source and are reflected by a medium back toward the
source. Today the advanced radar known as Doppler radar is
named after the Austrian scientist; it is mainly used by meteorologists
to forecast the weather and also as a real-time picture
of advancing weather systems.
Modern Doppler radars operate much like regular radar
but also provide radial velocity images, which are useful to
provide the users a three-dimensional image of the object
medium. Doppler waves that are reflected by objects moving
away from the source provide a lower frequency, while
objects moving toward the source return at a higher frequency,
providing three-dimensional radial velocities. Doppler
radar provides scientists with a way of viewing large-scale
objects such as hurricanes that have different internal velocities
and vectors.
