On the measurement of vertical velocity by MST radar [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
An overview is presented of the measurement of atmospheric vertical motion utilizing the MST radar technique. Vertical motion in the atmosphere is briefly discussed as a function of scale.

Meteorological Assessment of Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Energy Microgeneration Potentials Across Two Swiss Cities Located in Complex Terrain

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 28, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Wind energy is the most mature renewable energy technology; however, its exploitation in cities is often met with skepticism. Thanks to their ability to operate at low wind speed regardless of direction, vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) offer an attractive opportunity for wind energy harvesting in cities. However, limited evidence exists on

Nutrient Dynamics Modulated by Diapycnal Mixing and Particle Sinking Pathways Within an Intrathermocline Eddy in the Tropical Western North Pacific

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 13, 16 July 2025.
Abstract Oceanic subsurface eddies are believed to potentially impact biogeochemical cycles; however, our understanding remains limited due to sparse in situ observations. This study presents observation of an intrathermocline eddy (ITE) in the tropical western North Pacific and provides a comprehensive analysis of how ITE modulate nutrient dynamics by

Applications of MST radars: Meteorological applications [PDF]

open access: yes
Applications of mesosphere stratosphere troposphere radar to mesoscale meteorology are discussed. The applications include using the radar either as a research tool to improve our understanding of certain dynamical systems or as part of a network used to

CLUBB Reduces Low‐Cloud Dependency on Shallow Convective Mixing in the Community Atmosphere Model: Insight From Stable Water Isotopes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 13, 16 July 2025.
Abstract Modeling experiments and field campaigns have evaluated shallow convective mixing as a potential constraint on the low‐cloud climate feedback, which is critical for establishing climate sensitivity. Yet the apparent relationship between low‐cloud fraction and shallow convective mixing differs substantially among general circulation models ...

A theory for the retrieval of virtual temperature from winds, radiances and the equations of fluid dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
A technique to deduce the virtual temperature from the combined use of the equations of fluid dynamics, observed wind and observed radiances is described.

Measuring Clear‐Air Vertical Motions From Space

open access: yesAGU Advances
Measuring vertical velocity in the atmosphere has long been a challenge due to its small magnitude. Taking advantage of the modulation of free tropospheric relative humidity by vertical motions, we derive analytical relationships that allow us to ...
