The applications of RIM-SA in theboundary layer and lower troposphere are demonstrated using the NCAR MAPRsystem. A RIM-SA experiment was conducted on April, 27, 2002. High-resolutionpro<strong>file</strong>s using RIM-SA are shown to be consistent <strong>with</strong> pro<strong>file</strong>s measured using a<strong>single</strong> frequency and short pulse. Furthermore, good agreement between RIM-SAwinds and in situ winds measured by a radiosonde is shown in Yu and Brown[2003].AcknowledgmentsSome work was done when T.-Y. Y was a postdoc at ASP/ATD NCAR.
