Assessment of virtual towers performed with scanning wind lidars and Ka-band radars during the XPIA experiment [PDF]
During the eXperimental Planetary boundary layer Instrumentation Assessment (XPIA) campaign, which was carried out at the Boulder Atmospheric Observatory (BAO) in spring 2015, multiple-Doppler scanning strategies were carried out with scanning wind ...

Doppler wind lidar activities at Cabauw [PDF]
<p>Atmospheric motion and turbulence are essential parameters for weather and topics related to air quality. Therefore, wind profile measurements play an important role in atmospheric research and meteorology. One source of wind profile data are Doppler wind lidars, which are laser-based remote sensing instruments that measure wind speed ...

Modular wind profile retrieval software for heterogeneous Doppler lidar measurements (AtmoProKIT v1.1) [PDF]
Retrieving wind profiles from Doppler lidar radial velocities requires processing software tools. The heterogeneity of Doppler lidar types and data acquisition settings, as well as scan patterns applied for wind profiling, makes wind profile processing ...

An LES-based airborne Doppler lidar simulator and its application to wind profiling in inhomogeneous flow conditions [PDF]
Wind profiling by Doppler lidar is common practice and highly useful in a wide range of applications. Airborne Doppler lidar can provide additional insights relative to ground-based systems by allowing for spatially distributed and targeted measurements.

Offshore Doppler Wind LiDAR Assessment of Atmospheric Stability [PDF]
This paper tackles atmospheric stability typing using a Zephyr™ 300 offshore Doppler Wind Lidar in the context of its progressive acceptance in the offshore wind-energy industry. The lidar-retrieved wind-shear exponent, which is used as a proxy atmospheric stability, is compared against the wind-shear exponent and the potential temperature gradient ...

Offshore wind farm global blockage measured with scanning lidar [PDF]
The objective of this paper was the experimental investigation of the accumulated induction effect of a large offshore wind farm as a whole, i.e. the global-blockage effect, in relation to atmospheric-stability estimates and wind farm operational states.
