A stratospheric tropospheric wind profiling radar for use in operational weather forecasting

The Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology is in the process of installing a network of 9 wind profiling radars across Australia, including four stratospheric tropospheric profilers. To meet forecasting standards, these radars were required to produce averaged horizontal wind profiles, free from outliers, through as much of the atmosphere as possible. This research is concerned with the development of a radar to meet these requirements.
