In Fig. 8 the lamina is aligned on the isentrope but the streamline is not parallel to the isentrope.In this case U’ = U sin δ = Vr, but nothing can be said about the real vertical velocity W.reflectivity layerFig. 7 Reflectivity layer noton an isentrope and not alignedon a streamline, which is onthe isentrope.Fig. 8 Reflectivity layer is onisentrope and streamline is notparallel to the isentrope.Which of these scenarios isoccurring in reality determinesthe accuracy of velocity measurements<strong>with</strong> MST radar.New experiments should be performedto discriminate betweenthese possibilities.References:Larsen, M.F., and J.
