An airborne Doppler Lidar
Abstract
A pulsed CO2 Doppler Lidar, developed for airborne measurements of atmospheric wind fields, is described. In-flight tests show that the device can be successfully utilized in the detection and measurement of mountain-wave turbulence and wind shear, and in the generation of time histories of wind-field variations in smooth flight. This Lidar is in the process of being configured for measurement of the atmospheric flow fields surrounding severe convective storms.
