The meteorological aspects of certain radio‐transmission phenomena

Abstract
During the past few years, the interest of meteorologists has been increasingly directed to radio transmission by reason of the development of the radio meteorograph and the other services by which radio has come to play an important part in the dissemination of meteorological data. Broadly viewed, in nearly all of these services the primary use of radio has been for the transmission of data obtained by other classical methods.It is the purpose of this summary to review the present status of work directed toward the utilization of the phenomena of radio transmission in meteorological studies. Some of these possibilities appear to have been relatively neglected although some interesting literature dealing with various aspects of this subject has accumulated during the past ten or fifteen years. Recent additional results give promise of presaging an accelerated future development, and a survey of the field and of these phenomena hence seems appropriate.
