Abstract

A method is proposed for determining the height of the turbulent mixing layer based on the height profiles of the dissipation rate of turbulent energy, estimated from lidar measurements of the radial wind velocity using conical scanning by a probe beam around a vertical axis. The method has been tested in the atmospheric experiments.
