The spectral analysis of microscale horizontal radar reflectivity fluctuations, created near the top of stratiform clouds by turbulent convection, shows that the fluctuations are not totally random; the spectrum exhibits meaningful spectral peaks, reflecting a dynamic organization of the cloud in several frequency domains. This analytic technic may yield the spectral signature of clouds.
