Use of Turbulent Eddy Profiler in Making Atmospheric Boundary Layer Measurements

摘要

Following the purchase of a new TEP data acquisition system, TEP was deployed, along with UMass' FMCW profiler, during the CASES'99 Nocturnal Boundary Layer experiment near Leon, KS. During and following the experiment, several problems were identified in the new data acquisition system, and transmitter. During 2000, data acquisition problems were debugged, and a replacement transmitter was obtained in Spring 2001. TEP and the FMCW were deployed at a local field site in Amherst, MA. Coordinated operations confirmed successful operation of TEP, and collaborations with researchers at NQAA/ETL and U Nebraska are underway.
