Abstract: A new methodology is proposed for scaling Doppler lidar observations of wind gusts to make them comparable with those observed at a meteorological mast. Doppler lidars can then be used to measure wind gusts in regions and heights where traditional meteorological mast measurements are not available. This novel method also provides estimates for wind gusts at arbitrary gust durations, including those shorter than the temporal resolution of the Doppler lidar measurements. The input parameters for the scaling meth… Show more

“…Marine cold air outbreaks (MCAOs) are phenomena that increase lower atmospheric instability and occur when cold air moves over the warm ocean. The static stability induced by MCAOs is calculated by potential temperature differences between the skin surface and 850 hPa (Kolstad 2017) or by temperature differences between the sea surface and 500 hPa (Aspelien et al 2011;Smirnova and Golubkin 2017). The use of sea surface temperature in calculating the MCAO index faces difficulties over sea ice in the east coast of Greenland and in diagnosing local instabilities at the lower atmosphere.…”
