General comments

  • Rain contamination, but setting sd_vvp to higher than 2 also excludes all migration.
  • Overall pattern, excluding rain, looks ok. Somewhat low densities. /CN19
  • 2014-2017: precipitation often problematic; in EEHAR and EESUR overall too low densities not representative of migration intensity; velocities and directions unreliable and messy, problem with dealiasing (as in Finnish data), will affect MTR. Same problems are highly likely persisting in more recent data. To be used with great care. /NW

Volume coverage pattern

Both radars have the same scanning pattern and only slightly differ in the PRF and NI. This is the EE/HAR VCP:
