PROCESS FOR GENERATING SPATIALLY CONTINUOUS WIND PROFILES FROM WIND PROFILER MEASUREMENTS

摘要

A neural network process for improving wind retrievals from wind profiler measurements is described. In this invention, a neural network is trained to retrieve (missing or incomplete) upper level winds from ground based wind profiler measurements. Radiosonde measurements in conjunction with wind profiler ground measurements for specific geographical locations are used as training sets for the neural network. The idea is to retrieve timely and spatially continuous upper level wind information from (fragmented or incomplete) wind profiler measurements.
