A remote PPI with display of three intensity levels in shades of gray and compensation for range variations in scope illumination has been set up for the WR-66 radar. Camera attachments have been added to both radars. Design of the data processor has been completed. Printed circuits have been drawn and chasses have been built. A sensing unit for a continuously and automatically recording raindrop spectrometer has been built. Data taken in a number of storms show clearly that the WR-66 radar does not suffer from the limitations of attenuation, and low sensitivity and resolution which have been observed in the AN/CPS-9 and SCR-615-B radars. Applications and Analysis: Analysis of the mesoscale precipitation patterns in various types of storms and their relation to macroscale parameters is continuing. Coastal cyclones, some overland cyclones from the southwest, cold fronts and air mass storms have been analyzed. Results of a numerical analysis of snowflake aggregation are summarized. (Author).

This foreword deals exclusively with the planning, organization, and execution of the Workshop's scientific as well as cultural programs. It is opened with a synopsis on how the global political changes that occurred immediately after the Workshop caused the ~elay in producing the proceedings, followed by a brief exposition on need, timeliness, and importance of this second ARW in the field of electromagnetic imaging, radar remote sensing, and target versus clutter di~rimination; and an outline of the objectives. An informal discussion about some of the organizational details, a retrospective summary of events, and a preview of the third workshop, planned for 1993 September 19-25, is intended to recapture the spirit of this second NATO Advanced Research Workshop (1988 September 18-24), and will reveal how successful it was in compar ison to the first of 1983 September 18-24, how its accomplishments may be appreciated and why a third and last workshop was requested by its participants to take place during 1993 September 19-25.
