Development of airborne 2-μm coherent lidar for CO2 and wind measurements
Wind profile is fundamental in many atmospheric phenomena. Most of the weather stations are on land, while the stations on the sea are very sparse. Present global three-dimensional wind data is not good enough to improve numerical weather prediction, the global climate model, and many other meteorological studies. Spaceborne infrared and visible imagers and microwave scatterometers can make win...
متن کاملObservations of Atmospheric Structure and Dynamics in the Owens Valley of California with a Ground-Based, Eye-Safe, Scanning Aerosol Lidar*
First results are presented from the deployment of the NCAR Raman-Shifted Eye-Safe Aerosol Lidar (REAL) in the Owens Valley of California during the Terrain-Induced Rotor Experiment (T-REX) in March and April 2006. REAL operated in range–height indicator (RHI) and plan position indicator (PPI) scanning modes to observe the vertical and horizontal structures of the aerosol and cloud distribution...
متن کاملCoherent Doppler lidar for wind farm characterization
Coherent Doppler lidar measurements are of increasing interest for the wind energy industry. Wind measurements are fundamental inputs for the evaluation of potential energy yield and performance of wind farms. Three-dimensional scanning Doppler lidar may provide a new basis for wind farm site selection, design and optimization. In this paper, the authors discuss Doppler lidar measurements obtai...
متن کاملReprint 519 Application of LIDAR backscattered power to visibility monitoring at the Hong Kong International Airport: some initial results
This paper describes the application of a Doppler Light Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) system to the monitoring of visibility at the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA). The backscattered power data from the LIDAR are inverted by Klett’s method (1981) into extinction coefficient and then into atmospheric visibility. A plan position indicator (PPI) scan of the LIDAR thus enables the production...
متن کاملObservations and Analysis of Turbulent Wake of Wind Turbine by Coherent Doppler Lidar
Turbulent wake of wind turbine will reduce the power output of wind farm. The access to real turbulent wake of wind turbine blades with different spatial and temporal scales is provided by the pulsed Coherent Doppler Lidar (CDL) which operates by transmitting a laser beam and detecting the radiation backscattered by atmospheric aerosol particles. In this paper, the authors discuss the possibili...
