Abstract

A method is suggested to obtain the mean canting angle and the spread of canting angle distribution using linearly polarized waves. The estimates of canting angle and canting angle distribution are obtained using measurements from the S-band NCAR/SPOL and CSU/CHILL dual-polarization radars that have dual-channel receivers.
