  Summary
              Techniques for the suppression of ground and storm clutter to permit the detection of low altitude windshear by pulse Doppler radars are described.  Novel features of the system include the use of clutter residue and range aliased weather echo editing maps which edit out the range-azimuth cells on a "data adaptive" basis.
