  • MOSAiC Doppler Lidar Motion Correction VAPs Now in Production

    The location of ARM’s Doppler lidar on the R/V Polarstern during the MOSAiC expedition is indicated in this ARM file photo. Two value-added products (VAPs) specifically designed for the 2019–2020 Multidisciplinary Drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition recently moved from evaluation to production. The Doppler Lidar Motion Correction (DLMC) VAP applies…

  • Wind Profiles Derived From Motion-Corrected MOSAiC Lidar Data

    Using this example of a wind profile scan on a tilted surface, winds are retrieved at height z by interpolating the radial velocities in each beam to height z and then applying the standard wind retrieval technique to the interpolated data. A new value-added product (VAP) developed specifically for the Multidisciplinary Drifting Observatory for the…
