Doppler and spaced antenna radar measurements of wind velocity in the 80-100 km height region obtained simultaneously over six days in November 1980 at Buckland Park are discussed. Hourly mean values of wind velocity were found to show a high degree of consistency, with cross correlation coefficients of about 0.6-0.8 for the entire observational period. Significant improvement in the agreement between the results obtained by both methods was, however, achieved by taking into account the effect of the aspect sensitivity of the backscattering irregularies on the effective beam pointing angle of the Doppler radar beams.
