The flux of water vapor due to advection is measured using high-resolution Raman lidar that was orientated
horizontally across a land–lake transition. At the same time, a full surface energy balance is performed to assess
the impact of scalar advection on energy budget closure. The flux of water vapor due...
A new multi-telescope scanning Raman lidar designed to measure the water vapor mixing ratio for a complete diurnal cycle with high raw spatial (1.25 m) and temporal (1 s) resolutions is presented. The high resolution allows detailed measurements of the lower atmosphere and offers new opportunities for boundary layer research,...
Taylor’s frozen turbulence hypothesis is the central assumption invoked in most
experiments designed to investigate turbulence physics with time resolving sensors. It is also
frequently used in theoretical discussions when linking Lagrangian to Eulerian flow formalisms.
In this work we seek to quantify the effectiveness of Taylor’s hypothesis on the...
