1 Deutscher Wetterdienst Comparison of wind profiler radar measurements with Doppler wind lidar profiles measurements at the Lindenberg GRUAN site Bernd Stiller, Ronny Leinweber, Volker Lehmann DWD - Deutscher Wetterdienst Meteorologisches Obseratorium Lindenberg Germany Ronny.Leinweber@dwd.de
2 Outline Motiation Radar wind profiler (RWP - technical specification Doppler wind lidars - technical specifications Comparison Doppler wind lidars s. RWP, Radiosonde (RS and COSMO-EU NWP model Campaign setup Results Conclusions
3 Motiation Since years commercial Doppler wind lidars aailable at the market proiding ertical profiles in of the horizontal wind the boundary layer at high temporal and ertical resolution Questions: What potential do Doppler lidars hae for operational wind profile measurements? Can wind lidars complement / replace existing instruments? For ealuation of Doppler wind lidars a comparison with (a well-established radar wind profiler was done

19 Radar influenced by ground clutter in the lowest heights
20 Conclusion All Doppler wind lidars are in a good agreement with the radar wind profiler for a period of weeks differences in wind speed of.5m/s were obsered differences of were obsered for wind direction IMPORTANT: accurate alignment of lidar is required!! Large differences occur at the lowermost and uppermost altitude leels (ground clutter in RWP measurements / weak CNR Data aailability of wind lidars more than 9% up to 5 m complement the wind profile retrieed by (UHF radar wind profilers Doppler wind lidars are promising instruments for operational and scientific wind measurements in the boundary layer
