Abstract

Based on the 5-year averages of the values of pressure, temperature and relative humidity at the ground surface,850-mb level (about 5000ft a.s.l.) and 700-mb level (about l0,000 ft a.s.l.) , the corresponding values of modified radio-refractive index (or radio-refractivity) have been computed for these three levels for each month at various stations in India. These data have been utilised to describe and discuss the vertical structure of radio refractivity distribution in the lower troposphere upto an approximate height of 10,000 ft a.s.l. Various radio climatic charts have been prepared and the prominent features of the lower tropospheric radio-climate over the country have been discussed.
