| Description | The microwave frequency (MF) partial-reflection radar ran continuously since November 1983, with data being analyzed in real time. The spaced antenna technique was used routinely to produce a climatology of the mean circulation, atmospheric tides, and gravity waves. Since the beginning of 1985, the system was also used as a Doppler radar to measure the spectral widths of the mesospheric echoes. This has enabled the turbulence dissipation rates to be determined. The Stratosphere-Troposphere (ST) radar was operated in the spaced antenna mode to measure winds in November 1984, in conjunction with a cooperative campaign to study the propagation of cold fronts across SE Australia. Observations were also performed to study the structure of the more intense and deeper cold fronts, which occur in late winter. |
