Acoustic aerial for the experimental research sodar

Abstract

Complexity and semi-empirical nature of contemporary turbulence theories do not allow to expect reliable result interpretation sodar remote sensing data of an atmospheric boundary layer. Improving the method of processing requires the development of the experimental base and new experimental data. For example, it is necessary to have information about the spectrum of turbulent pulsation at different altitudes, their anisot-ropy, etc. The report substantiates the requirements to the sodar antenna system intended for studying the dynamic and spatial characteristics of the turbulent streams. Methods for problems solution are considered, the numerical experiment results and the aerial system elements tests are discussed.
