Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-006580

A display device that uses variations in brightness or color to represent the strength or magnitude of a detected signal, commonly found in radar systems. The intensity of the displayed light corresponds to the strength of the radar echo, indicating precipitation rates or turbulence. These indicators provide a visual representation of atmospheric phenomena.
