Abstract :
Using radiosonde data collated by the UK Meteorological Office, zenith gaseous attenuation calculations have been performed at 93 GHz for various locations in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Pressure, humidity and temperature profiles have been fed into APM to construct monthly mean maps of gaseous attenuation for clear sky and cloudy conditions
