摘要：During the Convective and Orographically induced Precipitation Study the Salford
Universities' Facility for Atmospheric Measurement 1.5 micron scanning Doppler
lidar was deployed at Achern, Bavaria, Germany from 13th June to 16th August
2007. Vertical velocity profiles through the boundary layer were measured every
3 minutes with vertical profiles of horizontal wind velocity being derived from
performing azimuth scans approximately every 30 minutes. During Intense
Observation Periods radiosondes were launched from the site. In this paper, a
case of convective development on 15th July 2007 is investigated. Estimates of
eddy dissipation rate are made from the vertically pointing lidar data and used
as one input to the velocity temperature co-variance equation to estimate
sensible heat flux. The assumptions made in this analysis are tested as far as
possible.
