CAA study of unidentified radar plots is reported as showing that the spurious targets are caused by radar energy which ricochets off small atmo~pheric areas, strikes the ground, and returns an echo via fr.€ same path. These isolated refracting areas are normally found under temperature inversion conditions and travel with the wind, giving movir,g-target indications on radar scopes. Findiugs contained in CAA T. D.
