“…Blackadar, 1957;Hoecker, 1963;Bonner, 1968;Parish et al, 1988;Mitchell et al, 1995;Stensrud, 1996;Zhong et al, 1996;Whiteman et al, 1997;Banta et al, 2002;Song et al, 2005;Banta, 2008;Walters et al, 2008) but also observed at many other locations worldwide (see references in Sládkovič and Kanter, 1977;Stensrud, 1996;Beyrich et al, 1997). The jet typically begins to develop around sunset, under dry cloud-free conditions conducive to strong radiational cooling, reaches a peak intensity in the early morning hours, and then decays shortly after dawn, with the onset of daytime convective mixing.…”

“…7 and 8 of Banta, 2008). An analysis of high-resolution Doppler lidar data from the CASES-99 field campaign in Kansas revealed large variability in the temporal behaviour of the height of the wind maximum (Banta et al, 2002). Since a descending wind maximum was a more robust feature of the numerical simulations over flat terrain without an imposed thermal wind than of the observations (which were frequently over gentle, but generally non-zero, terrain slopes, and subject to synoptic influences), we speculate that the tendency of the height of some observed wind maxima to increase with time may be a consequence of synoptic-or terrain-associated baroclinicity.…”

“…This is mentioned here because references to experiments in such sites are made later in the thesis. Banta et al (2002) studied the characteristics of LLJs over Kansas. Most of the jet maxima they measured occurred below 140m which is within the height range swept by the rotor of a modern multi-MW wind turbine.…”

“…The LLJs were studied remotely with Doppler sodars (Coulter 1981;Beyrich 1994;Emeis et al 2007;Kallistratova et al 2009), radars (Zhong et al 1996;Song et al 2005), and lidars (Banta et al 2002;Wang et al 2007;Banta 2008).…”
