Abstract

This memorandum describes the work of the RSRE Weather Radar Division in the Ground Radar and ATC Group who in co-operation with the Meteorological Office Radar Research Laboratory (Met O RRL) at RSRE have installed an operational weather radar system at Camborne, Cornwall. This is the first of a number of installations soon to be installed by the Meteorological Office. These will form an operational network of weather radars to enable quantitative rainfall data to be made available to meteorologists, hydrologists and others remote from the radar stations. (Author)
