Abstract:

Wind profiles processed from measurements of the Doppler lidar Leosphere WLS200s_159 located at Guipavas (48.44437°N, 4.41118°W, 94 m) during the NAWDIC field campaign from December 2025 to March 2026. The instrument was placed on a container with 2.59 m height. The heights and the altitude refer to the position of the instrument. For the wind profile calculation, RHI, PPI, DBS scans, and vertical stares are used. The scan pattern had a repeat time of ten minutes, containing four RHIs, three PPIs, two DBS scans, and 10 s of vertical stares, each. The four RHI scans were carried out in four directions (northwards, eastwards, southwards, westwards). The three PPI scans were carried out at 1°, 35.3°, and 60° elevation angle. The vertical profiles of the 3D wind vectors are calculated using AtmoProKIT v1.1 with the standard module chain (https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-19-2497-2026). The default values of the standard module chain are used for all processing parameters, which excludes measurements below an elevation angle of 15°. Due to continuous vertical stare measurements, no wind vectors are retrieved between minutes 30 and 40. The temporal resolution of the processed wind profiles is 10 min and the vertical resolution is 100 m.
