the lower atmosphere. Worthington and Vaughan (1998) found out that M squared insaturated and dry air is weakest. That can explain a WP reflectivity less important around6UTC while a cloud is over the WP. The same phenomena occurs at 12UTC while theradiosounding from Milano Linate observed a very large humidity. A first attempt to use theradiosoundings (RS) of Milano Linate, launched every 6hours and around 50km from the WPsite, has not been very conclusive due to their time resolution, the lack of wind data at12UTC, needed to compute C n 2 and the localization of the cloud system.3- ConclusionDifferent aspects of the synergy between simultaneous measurements of WDR and WP havebeen investigated. They point out the interest to combine WDR and WP observations.Especially from a wind pro<strong>file</strong>r point of view it is important for cloud physics. A quantitativeinterpretation of the VHF reflectivity in during the MAP events is ongoing using other sets ofdata obtained in this area.ReferencesBougeault, P., P. Binder, A. Buzzi, R. Dirks, R.
