Abstract
On 30 June 1981, the wind fields around a variety of convective clouds, ranging from large thunderstorm complexes to isolated cumulus congestus, were observed in some detail using an airborne Doppler lidar operated by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and a reasonably clear picture of the main features of the flow fields near several clouds have been obtained.
