Abstract:We determine the impact of floating turbine motion on turbulence measurements from a four-beam lidar by emulating its scanning configuration and retrievals within atmospheric turbulence boxes. Since the elevation angle of the lidar beams is small and the two bottom lidar beams point closely to the horizontal plane, we also evaluate the turbulence estimation abilities of a two-beam lidar. For the two-beam nacelle lidar, the variance of the individual beams is close to the target u-variance and closer than that … Show more
