Abstract

In this paper the S-band Transportable Atmospheric Radar, TARA, is presented. The system came into operation in April 2000 and combines high temporal and spatial resolution with high flexibility and high sensitivity. Resolution and sensitivity are exemplified in measurements of a rain event above the Delft area in the Netherlands. From the co and cross-polar measurements, an antenna limit of approximately -30 dB is deduced. The measurements also show a typical Linear Depolarization ratio of -15 dB in the bright band.
