OROGRAPHIC EFFECTS ON PRECIPITATION PROCESSES.

Abstract

This report describes some results of preliminary analyses of pulse-to-pulse radar backscatter measurements of precipitation above and below the bright band. Other work reported on includes radar studies of orographic effects on precipitation and an unusual radar view of a lee-wave or rotor. A more comprehensive analysis of this other work will appear in the Final Report.
