Abstract: This work details a master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) microjoule-class pulsed coherent Doppler lidar system configuration designed to measure line-of-sight wind velocities and backscatter intensity of atmospheric ...

Doppler Lidar Estimation of Mixing Height Using Turbulence, Shear, and Aerosol Profiles

Source: Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology:;2009:;volume( 026 ):;issue: 004:;page 673

Author(s): Tucker, Sara C.; Senff, Christoph J.; Weickmann, Ann M.; Brewer, W. Alan; Banta, Robert M.; Sandberg, Scott P.; Law, Daniel C.; Hardesty, R. Michael

Publisher: American Meteorological Society

Abstract: The concept of boundary layer mixing height for meteorology and air quality applications using lidar data is reviewed, and new algorithms for estimation of mixing heights from various types of lower-tropospheric coherent ...

High-Resolution Doppler Lidar for Boundary Layer and Cloud Research

Source: Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology:;2001:;volume( 018 ):;issue: 003:;page 376

Author(s): Grund, Christian J.; Banta, Robert M.; George, Joanne L.; Howell, James N.; Post, Madison J.; Richter, Ronald A.; Weickmann, Ann M.

Publisher: American Meteorological Society

Abstract: The high-resolution Doppler lidar (HRDL) was developed to provide higher spatial, temporal, and velocity resolution and more reliable performance than was previously obtainable with CO2-laser-based technology. The improved ...

3D Volumetric Analysis of Wind Turbine Wake Properties in the Atmosphere Using High-Resolution Doppler Lidar

Source: Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology:;2015:;volume( 032 ):;issue: 005:;page 904

Author(s): Banta, Robert M.; Pichugina, Yelena L.; Brewer, W. Alan; Lundquist, Julie K.; Kelley, Neil D.; Sandberg, Scott P.; Alvarez II, Raul J.; Hardesty, R. Michael; Weickmann, Ann M.

Publisher: American Meteorological Society

Abstract: ind turbine wakes in the atmosphere are three-dimensional (3D) and time dependent. An important question is how best to measure atmospheric wake properties, both for characterizing these properties observationally and for ...
