  • Abstract
    This paper is an overview of methods and means for remote sensing of atmosphere based on backscattering of electromagnetic waves for prediction of dangerous weather phenomena zones along the route of the airplane. In addition to such traditional phenomena as turbulence, hail, icing-in-flight and thunderstorm, the approaches to distinguish areas of volcano dust is also included into consideration.
