Medium-range Vertical Wind Lidar

Medium-range Vertical Wind Lidar

WindMast PBL(M)

WindMast PBL(M) Medium-range Vertical Wind Lidar is based on the principle of optical pulse coherence Doppler frequency shift detection and can meet the refined detection requirements of the three-dimensional wind field within the 3000m altitude range of the atmosphere.

It provides real-time output of wind profiles, turbulence intensity, vertical airflow, boundary layer height, cloud base height, signal-to-noise ratio, backscattering coefficient, ground temperature, humidity, pressure, and other data products.

It is widely used in meteorological and climatic research, assimilation of meteorological forecasting models, research on atmospheric material fluxes and regional transport and diffusion of pollutants, and detection of wind shear at low altitude.
