AbstractA commonly accepted expression relating the strength of radar backscatter and the strength of atmospheric turbulence is re-investigated. It is found that the previously accepted relation between the two quantities should have an extra dependence on the Richardson number included, and the implications for radar and in-situ studies of the atmosphere are discussed.
