A subsidiary
page of The Radar Entomology Web Site
The Radar Entomology Web Site (TREWS) has been authored mainly by Alistair Drake, who also maintains it. Don Reynolds provides some material and co-maintains the bibliography. The Questions and Answers page includes material from several correspondents. Contributions from other authors are welcome. The site links to many external pages, and these have mostly been authored by other writers in other institutions: they will usually have identified themselves in an address line.
I maintain TREWS as a service to other researchers in my areas of interest (especially radar science and insect migration), and as a way of assessing the value of the Internet for disseminating specialist scientific knowledge. I hope that it will serve as a meeting place for all those working in, or simply following, these fascinating fields of research. If it also proves useful as an educational resource, helps to promote interest in radar entomology and insect migration among a broader community, or simply informs and entertains a broader audience than I have hitherto been able to reach, that's great.
TREWS was inspired by the invaluable (for insect migration enthusiasts) Migration and Dispersal of Insects and other Biota site, which it aims to complement but not compete with (except perhaps in style).
TREWS is not an official site of any institution.
I will endeavour to respond to any constructive correspondence. Unsurprisingly, I prefer to communicate by email. I would particularly welcome contributions on particular topics (e.g. technical, historical, summaries of results, and current observations), news items and announcements for What's New in Radar Entomology, and information about appropriate links to incorporate.
When material from TREWS is incorporated into other documents, the original authorship should normally be acknowledged. Original material such as photographs and text (but not icons) should not be incorporated into a published document without the permission of the original photographer or author. Hypertext links to TREWS are welcomed and no acknowledgment is expected if they are made to a full TREWS page. If links are made to individual images or targets within a page, however, TREWS should be identified as the source of the information at least once in the referring document (e.g. in an Acknowledgments section).
TREWS is hosted on a server at ASoP (where I work as a university lecturer).
