Recommendation on use of wind lidars

Abstract

The 15 Early Stage Researchers (ESRs) in the LIKE project investigate topics in which wind lidar play a significant role. This report provides the ESRs an introductory reading and gives a short introduction into the basic principles, as well as an overview on the practical application of lidar wind measurement technology for a wide range of research fields, including a corresponding literature review. Wherever possible, it will also give the ESRs recommendations on the use of lidars and related best practices and provide corresponding state-of-the-art documents in the attachment.
