  "term": "Extremely high frequency",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The portion of the electromagnetic spectrum ranging from 30 to 300 gigahertz (GHz), corresponding to wavelengths between 1 millimeter and 1 centimeter. These frequencies are strongly attenuated by atmospheric gases, particularly water vapor and oxygen, making them suitable for short-range, high-bandwidth communication. They are also used in remote sensing applications, such as cloud and precipitation radar.",
