Updraft and downdraft characterization with Doppler lidar: cloud-free versus cumuli-topped mixed layer
For the first time, a comprehensive, height-resolved Doppler lidar study of updrafts and downdrafts in the mixing layer is presented. The Doppler lidar measurements were performed at Leipzig, Germany, in the summer half year of 2006. The conditional sampling method is applied to the measured vertica...
