Latest WERA radar data plots

Last updated at Friday 10th September 2010 (05:02 GMT)

All times are in GMT, and there is a delay between real time and collection time due to the ftp and processing times needed. Where the wave plot time lags behind the current plot time, or the current plot time lags behind the radial plot time, this indicates a diminished return for that data.

IMPORTANT
Please note that the following plots show not just the expected area of data suitable for radial current measurement, but ALL data collected within a defined grid.

The collection site has been set up knowing that data outside an arc (varying from 45-75 degrees depending on which theory you follow) either side of the boresite (master/Abergele=12.2 degrees, slave/Formby=231.7 degrees) may not be useable for oceanographic applications. However all data are being collected to investigate the angular limit of acceptable accuracy.
