Abstract: The performance of mean-frequency estimators for Doppler radar and lidar measurements of winds is presented in terms of two basic parameters: Φ, the ratio of the average signal energy per estimate to the spectral noise ...

Abstract: Correction to Volume 11, Issue 5, pages 1217-1230.

Abstract: Turbulence affecting aircraft is frequently reported within bands of cirrus anvil cloud extending radially outward from upstream deep convection in mesoscale convective systems (MCSs). A high-resolution convection permitting ...

Abstract: Some 50 separate high-resolution profiles of small-scale turbulence defined by the energy dissipation rate (ε), horizontal wind speed, and temperature from near the surface, through the nighttime stable boundary layer ...

Abstract: This paper summarizes high-resolution measurements of the vertical wind fields near and inside a cloud deck from a ground-based 2-?m solid state coherent Doppler lidar. Results include physical characterization of the deck ...

Abstract: Constant altitude measurements of temperature and velocity in the residual layer of the nocturnal boundary layer, collected by the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) Tethered Lifting System ...
