Conically scanning lidar error in complex terrain

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2009
Conically scanning lidars assume the flow to be homogeneous in order to deduce the horizontal wind speed. However, in mountainous or complex terrain this assumption is not valid implying a risk that the lidar will derive an erroneous wind speed.
