Abstract

NASA has maintained a long-term investment in the development of Doppler lidar for wind measurements. The current program includes airborne lidars as well as concepts for potential shuttle and free flyer opportunities. Various airborne lidar measurement objectives, providing both new scientific data and experience applicable to future global scale measurements, will be highlighted.
