Notional Hybrid DWL Concept First proposed in 1995 as WOS/H (Wind Observing Satellite/Hybrid) Capitalize on the strengths of both technologies Coherent for probing lower troposphere with high velocity accuracy below clouds and in regions of enhanced aerosols Direct for broad coverage of the mid/upper troposphere (+ stratosphere) with modest accuracy Lower cost by reducing investment in “very big” individual lidars; sharing a launch; sharing a platform; sharing pointing control, data collection, mission management and science team, etc.

Science Synergies for the Hybrid DWL Concept The hybrid approach will provide full tropospheric wind observations sooner, with much of the accuracy, resolution and coverage needed by tomorrows global and regional models The molecular DWL sub-system would, in its first mission, provide useful wind observations in cloud free regions of the mid/upper troposphere and lower stratosphere The coherent DWL sub-system would immediately meet the science and operational requirements throughout the troposphere in regions of high aerosol backscatter (dust layers, clouds, PBL aerosols)

Synergisms The molecular system may provide good first guesses in the coherent system’s weak signal regime, enabling the coherent system to provide a more accurate wind observation than either system alone could make. The coherent system could be optimized explicitly for resolving the ageostrophic features (moisture jets, Tropical circulations) of the lower troposphere, while the molecular system could be optimized to produce fewer, but still accurate, observations of the larger divergent features of the mid and upper troposphere

Synergisms The more dynamically interesting regions of the troposphere usually involve clouds. The coherent system is best suited to sampling through and below clouds. The molecular system, which is severely compromised by clouds, would provide the winds above and around the generally cloudy areas

IPO funded Hybrid feasibility study 1999-2001 Developed “reference systems” which could be used in trade studies. Defined a common data product as target Scaled each technology to obtain the same data product. (yielded very large systems) Defined a hybrid system that would yield the same data products; in some respects better.

Current Hybrid Concept Baseline concepts and the hybrid concept have been revised from earlier versions to take advantage of: a set of community data requirements resulting from a collaboration of many individuals and distributed as official draft requirements a series of concept exercises by NASA/GSFC’s ISAL and IMDC as part of the GTWS effort
