Study of Divergence in the Boundary Layer Using Optical Propagation Techniques
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A wind-measuring system using three separate optical systems, each consisting of a 3 mW He-Ne 1aser and two photodiode receivers, forming an equilateral triangle 300 m on a side, has successfully measured the divergence ...
Laser Weather Identifier: Present and Future
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Prototype Laser Weather Identifier (LWI) systems designed to detect fog, rain and snow were tested for several months at Stapleton International Airport in Denver, and at the AFGL Weather Test Facility at Otis Air Force ...
Wind Velocity and Convergence Measurements at the Boulder Atmospheric Observatory Using Path-Averaged Optical Wind Sensors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In a cooperative field study of the planetary boundary layer, three optical wind sensors were placed around a 300 m meteorological tower in a 450 m equilateral triangle 3?4 m above the terrain. It was found that the ...
