Estimating the Parameters of Wind Turbulence from Spectra of Radial Velocity Measured by a Pulsed Doppler Lidar

The strategy providing an estimation of both the mean velocity and the temporal and spatial spectra of radial velocity from data of the same pulse coherent Doppler lidar is proposed. Theoretical relations taking into account the averaging over the probing volume while estimating the spectra of fluct...

description The strategy providing an estimation of both the mean velocity and the temporal and spatial spectra of radial velocity from data of the same pulse coherent Doppler lidar is proposed. Theoretical relations taking into account the averaging over the probing volume while estimating the spectra of fluctuations of the radial velocity measured by lidar are presented. The method of estimation of the turbulent energy dissipation rate and the variance of the vertical component of wind velocity vector from the spectra of radial velocity is carried out. The results of the comparative experiments are discussed and used in further studies of wind turbulence in the atmospheric boundary layer during the formation of low-level jets and propagation of internal gravity waves.
