On the accuracy of retrieved wind information from Doppler lidar observations
A single pulsed Doppler lidar was successfully deployed to measure air ow and turbulence over the Malvern hills, Worcester, UK. The DERA Malvern lidar used was a CO2 10.6 1m pulsed Doppler lidar. The lidar pulse repetition rate was 120 Hz and had a pulse duration of 0.6 1s. The system was set up to have 41 range gates with range resolution of 112 m. This gave a theoretical maximum range of ap...
متن کاملA comparison of ground-based Doppler lidar and airborne in situ wind observations above complex terrain
Airborne wind observations collected by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) WP-3D aircraft are compared with the winds retrieved by the NOAA/Environmental Technology Laboratory’s ground-based scanning Doppler lidar within the Wipp Valley during the Special Observing Period of the Mesoscale Alpine Programme. Comparisons are performed along individual ight tracks and ov...
متن کاملDetermination of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Ambient Urban Air
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHS) have been determined in the atmosphere of Isfahan, Iran. Airborne particulate matter was sampled using a high-volume air sampler at roof-top level (~6m). Extraction of PAHS from airborne particulate matter has been performed using SFE system and the relationship between the extraction temperature and the recovery of PAHS</su...
متن کاملConditional Random Fields for Airborne Lidar Point Cloud Classification in Urban Area
Over the past decades, urban growth has been known as a worldwide phenomenon that includes widening process and expanding pattern. While the cities are changing rapidly, their quantitative analysis as well as decision making in urban planning can benefit from two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) digital models. The recent developments in imaging and non-imaging sensor technologies, s...
متن کاملHigh Altitude Turbulence Detection Using an Airborne Doppler
Air turbulence is a serious problem that affects airline operations. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is developing an airborne Doppler LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) for on-board turbulence detection. Flight experiments demonstrated that a highaltitude prototype can measure wind speeds at the more than 9 km range at altitude of 12 km. This paper describes the development of t...
