Abstract
A new variational analysis scheme capable of obtaining three-dimensional winds from single Doppler observations of convective storms is proposed. The method incorporates radar data, background fields, smoothness, mass continuity constraints, and the residual of reflectivity conservation in a single cost function. By minimizing this cost function, an analysis with the desired fit to these constraints is obtained in a single procedure.
