Subject:
SGP/DL/C1 - Temporary modification of normal scan schedule
DataStreams:sgpdlusrC1.b1
Description:
During the period in question, the Doppler lidar's scan schedule was modified temporarily 
to support a small IOP at the SGP central facility. This change effects data acquired 
after about 22:00 UTC on 20130627. Normal operations were resumed at about 2330 on 3 July 
2013. The modified scan schedule  resulted in the generation of sgpdlusrC1.b1 data files. 
Each of these files contain a series of stares at several different elevation angles. 
These scans were designed to measure turbulent statistics at several heights directly above 
another nearby Doppler lidar system (LLNL's WindCube V2). A third Doppler lidar system 
(OU's Streamline) performed coordinated and simultaneous stares over the WindCube. The goal 
of these measurements is to retrieve three-dimensional turbulent statistics as a function 
of height above the WindCube. For more information contact Dr. Petra Kline at the 
University of Oklahoma.
