Status of TODWL and GWOLF G. D. Emmitt & C. O’Handley SWA January 2006

2 mJ, 330 nsec, 500 Hz Digitization rate 500 MHz

TODWL New system installed 9 December 2005 Checkout flights 14,15 &16 December 2005 Ready for missions. However, installation configuration to be changed to use less real estate so that the DWL can co-fly with other experiments

Checkout Flight Objectives Hardware performance checkout (OK) Evaluate new “complex terrain” scan pattern Underfly Quiksact and/or WindSat Collect new series of profiles over the ridge/valleys near Monterey, CA

GWOLF NASA provided hemispherical scanner for installation on top of GWOLF trailer. Scanner installed in December Racks and internal hardware need to be fabricated and installed (finish expected March 15)

VALIDAR & GWOLF at the Lidar Intercomparison Facility Location Of Target Lights Bldg 1297 R-B-Y-G

Observation Plan for GWOLF Co-operate with LaRC’s VALIDAR and GSFC’s GLOW at LaRC’s Lidar Intercomparison Facility. Conduct random set of observations designed to generate a distribution of vertical performance throughout all seasons (in Virginia). Participate in NSF funded experiment in Arizona to study desert dust redistribution within sparsely vegetated regions. Planning to participate in proposed plume studies at Redstone Arsenal Co-operate next to CIRPAS radar in a tornado study in 07.
