Abstract

When radio waves are incident on rain drops, they are partly absorbed and partly scattered. The incident beam becomes attenuated, the effect increasing as the wavelength is reduced. The attenuation is not important for wave-lengths above one metre, but becomes appreciable at wave-lengths of 10 cm and below.
