摘要: A set of clear-air Doppler radar measurements is analyzed in which the beam was pointed at several different directions from zenith, each two azimuths. The data were then examined to assess variability inferred horizontal wind, for azimuth, and vector combined Root-mean-square errors determination wind are estimated be around 1 m/s. Possible reductions this error projected greater off-zenith angles. application measurement vertical shear discussed.
