“…VHF Stratosphere-Troposphere radars and UHF wind profilers are commonly used to estimate turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) dissipation rate ε from Doppler spectral width (hereafter, noted 2σ 𝑜𝑏𝑠 ) in the atmosphere (e.g., Hocking, 1983Hocking, , 1985Hocking, , 1986Hocking, , 1999Fukao et al, 1994;Cohn, 1995, Kurosaki et al, 1996Bertin et al, 1997, Delage et al, 1997Naström and Eaton, 35 1997, Dole et al, 2001, Jacoby-Kaoly et al, 2002, Satheesan and Murthy, 2002Naström and Eaton, 2005;Wilson et al, 2005, Kalapureddy et al, 2007Singh et al, 2008;Dehghan and Hocking, 2011;Kantha and Hocking, 2011;Dehghan et al, 2014;Wilson et al, 2014;Hocking et al, 2016;Li et al, 2016;Kohma et al, 2019;Jaiswal et al, 2020;Chen et al, 2022). Several models have been proposed to relate 2σ 𝑜𝑏𝑠 to ε.…”
