The vertical cross section is along the baseline <br />between the two radars. The region above the curved heavy solid line is where the ver- <br />tical component of the wind can be measured with an error less than 1 m s-l if the <br />errors in the estimates of radial velocities at both radars are 0.5 m s-l. Assuming a <br />cloud top at 5 km MSL (dashed line) the area of useful winds is then between the heavy <br />solid line and the dashed line.
