Description:

The NAdr network is a WERA HF Radar System, retrieving surface currents and waves every 30′ in the Gulf of Trieste (Northern Adriatic Sea). It is composed by four antennas emitting at a central frequency of 24.5 MHz. They produce data every 30 minutes, with spatial resolution of 1.5 km and maximum radial coverage of about 35-40 km. Surface ocean velocities estimated by HF Radar are representative of the upper 0.3-2.5 meters of the ocean. The Totals are the combination of the HFR data of the stations AURI and PIRA until 01/03/2023. The station IZOL was added on 01/03/2023 and the station TRI1 on 10/07/2023 .
