The retrieval of turbulence parameters with profiling Doppler wind lidars (DWLs) is of high
interest for boundary layer meteorology and its applications. DWLs provide wind …

Scanning Doppler lidars have great potential for reducing uncertainty of wind resource
estimation in complex terrain. Due to their scanning capabilities, they can measure at …

Doppler-lidar scan techniques for wind profiling rely on the assumption of a horizontally
homogeneous wind field and stationarity for the duration of the scan. As this condition is …

A LiDAR Statistical Barnes Objective Analysis (LiSBOA) for the optimal design of lidar scans
and retrieval of the velocity statistical moments is proposed. LiSBOA represents an …

We present novel measurements from a field campaign that aims to characterize multi-scale
flow patterns, ranging from 0.1 to 10 km in a time-resolved manner, in a mountainous region …

The LiDAR Statistical Barnes Objective Analysis (LiSBOA), presented in Letizia et al.(2021),
is a procedure for the optimal design of lidar scans and calculations over a Cartesian grid of …

Wind profiling by Doppler lidar is common practice and highly useful in a wide range of
applications. Airborne Doppler lidar can provide additional insights relative to ground-based …

Strategically placed Doppler lidars (DLs) offer insights into flow processes that are not
observable with meteorological towers. For this study we use intersecting range height …

Wind farm sites in complex terrain are subject to local wind phenomena, which have a
relevant impact on a wind turbine's annual energy production. To reduce investment risk, an …

The wind flow over a double-ridge site has been numerically simulated with a nested model-
chain coupling, down to horizontal resolutions of 40 m. The results were compared with field …
