Instruments

MARLi and ADL  can provide PBL dynamics and thermodynamics measurements to facilitate PBL structure characterizations and process studies.  They can be deployed on aircraft to provide spatially resolved measurements or on the ground as part of  PBLMAPS.

Figure 1. A schematic illustration of MARLi and ADL on the new UWKA. ADL has a nadir beam to provide vertical velocity measurements. The inserted five-beam radial measurements are based on LES model simulations.
