“…Bulk of the studies have concentrated on nocturnal flows near the surface (Keller et al, 2011;Thomas et al, 2012;Zeeman et al, 2015;Pfister et al, 2017;Izett et al, 2019;Mahrt et al, 2019;Pfister et al, 2019) and a few have concentrated on transition periods (Higgins et al, 2018(Higgins et al, , 2019. By utilising different DTS measurement configurations, some studies have done distributed wind speed (heated cables) (Sayde et al, 2015;Pfister et al, 2017) or humidity (wetted cables) measurements (Euser et al, 2014;Schilperoort et al, 2018), whereas others have examined the radiation error of the cables (de Jong et al, 2015;Sigmund et al, 2017). However, thorough and critical analysis on the feasibility of DTS system to measure atmospheric scalar mixing has not been done since the pioneering study of Thomas et al (2012).…”
