Observation of nocturnal low-level wind shear and particulate matter in urban Beijing using a Doppler wind lidar

A field experiment of nocturnal mountain wind and corresponding particulate matter (PM) evolution under weak synoptic forcing at five sites within urban Beijing was conducted using a moving Doppler wind lidar and a fixed tower. Clear wind shear and zero-horizontal-wind zones at 40–320 m above the gr...
