Investigating vertical motion of small insects in atmospheric boundary layer using millimetre‐wavelength radar and Doppler LIDAR

It is well known in the meteorological community that millimetre‐wavelength cloud radars contain considerable contamination from aerial biota, and much of this comprises small weakly flying insects. Several methods have been explored for removing insect contamination from cloud radar data yet using this data to study the behaviour of insects remains a relatively unexplored area. Here, the authors…
