Nonlinear Kinematic Depth Inversion Coupled With a Spectral Wave Model
Abstract We present a bidirectional coupling between a nonlinear kinematic depth inversion method and a phase‐averaged spectral wave model to evaluate the influence of wave nonlinearity over gently sloping nearshore bathymetry. Time‐resolved wave imagery provides spatially varying frequency–wavenumber fields, whereas the simulated significant wave ...

Comparing triple and single Doppler lidar wind measurements with sonic anemometer data based on a new filter strategy for virtual tower measurements [PDF]
In this study, we compare the wind measurements of a virtual tower triple Doppler lidar setup to those of a sonic anemometer located at a height of 90 m above ground on an instrumented tower and with those of two single Doppler lidars to evaluate the ...

Doppler wind lidar has played an important role in alerting low-level wind shear (LLW). However, these high-resolution observations are underused in the model-based analysis and forecasting of LLW.

Abstract Accurate estimation of bedload fluxes is critical to understanding sediment transport processes and associated channel evolution in gravel‐bed rivers, however, traditional direct measurements using samplers are time‐consuming and complex. To overcome these limitations, new indirect methods have been developed to estimate fluxes from bedload ...

Aircraft Wake Vortex Parametrization Based on 1.5-μm Coherent Doppler Lidar Data
A strategy of measurement by a 1.5-μm pulsed coherent Doppler lidar “Stream Line” has been developed, and a method for estimation of aircraft wake vortices from the lidar data has been proposed.

Abstract Atmospheric resonance lidars targeting metallic species in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere have yielded insights into the dynamics of the middle and upper atmosphere for over 50 years. Recently, the technique has been extended to the metastable helium layer, which reaches up to 1,000 km or above.

Abstract Resonance lidars targeting the D1 ${D}_{1}$ resonance line of potassium at 770 nm have been employed over the past 5 decades to yield numerous insights into the dynamics of the middle and upper atmosphere. It has long been recognized that these measurements can be severely affected by nonlinear behavior in the scattering process, that is ...

Real Time Turbulence Estimation Using Doppler Lidar Measurements
A preliminary work on a new way to estimate atmospheric turbulence using high-frequency Doppler lidar measurements is presented. The turbulence estimations are based on wind reconstruction using 3D Doppler lidar observations and a particle filter.
