Project Objectives We will provide an independent and credible measurement of radial wind speed, wind profile, 3D wind vector, aerosol backscatter coefficient, aerosol extinction coefficient, extinction-to-backscatter ratio (limited in the atmospheric boundary layer and troposphere), sea surface wind vectors using the direct-detect Doppler wind lidar / HSRL (High Spectral Resolution Lidar) with an iodine filter during ADM-Aeolus overpass ground-based lidar site (N 36.04, E 120.20). In addition to the lidar observations, wind profiles and other relevant meteorological data from radiosonde could also be provided. These results can be compared with the data products of ADM-Aeolus, and we will analyze the comparison results and present assessment reports to ESA.

Background
• For a ground-based lidar system, the backscattered light usually has large dynamic range.
• Photon-counting mode is used to measure weak signal from high altitude with high sensitivity.
• Analog-to-Digital mode is used to measure strong signal at low altitude with good linearity.

Determine the linear region of AD and PC data
The linear region is determined from both the standard deviation of the binned data and the relative standard deviation.

Conclusions
• Gluing method causes wind error. • Accuracy of gluing is influenced by:
– data source for regression – linear region to calculate the slope of linear regression – average method (weighted or not) – cloud layer
• Lidar signals are analyzed using the optimized gluing method and show good results.
