Abstract
- Aircraft and radar weather data recorded for support of the Minuteman PVM-5 test are presented. The link-offset mode was used successfully to obtain radar data for correlation with the aircraft data. The correlation data were quite good, and provided usable relations of reflectivity factor (Z) and water content (M) on five of nine passes. Application of the Z-M relations to the reflectivity data recorded along the re-entry trajectories provided estimates of the water content profile and the weather severity index (WSI) for each of the trajectories.<br />Air Force surveys in geophysics.
