Combined high-resolution rainfall and wind data collected for 3 months on a wind farm 110 km southeast of Paris (France)

The Hydrology Meteorology and Complexity laboratory of École des Ponts ParisTech (http://hmco.enpc.fr, last access: 16 August 2022) has made a data set of high-resolution atmospheric measurements available, which is of interest for the atmospheric science community. It comes from a campaign carried out in the framework of the Rainfall Wind Turbine or Turbulence project (RW-Turb; supported by the French National Research Agency, grant no. ANR-19-CE05-0022) on a meteorological mast installed at a wind farm located approx. 110 km southeast of Paris in France. In total, 3 months of data, covering the spring period from 1 March to 1 June 2021, are made available. We used six devices, namely two 3D sonic anemometers (manufactured by Thies), two mini meteorological stations (manufactured by Thies), and two disdrometers (Parsivel², manufactured by OTT). They are installed at two heights (approx. 45 and 80 m), which enables us to monitor potential effects of altitude. The temporal resolution is of 100 Hz for the 3D sonic anemometers, 1 Hz for the meteorological stations, and 30 s for the disdrometers. A multifractal analysis is implemented to assess the effective resolution of the devices, and it is suggested that the anemometers and stations are able to measure expected variability only down to 1 and 16 s, respectively.
