Abstract
A methodology, based on the measurements made by a UHF wind-profiler mesoscale network, which retrieves the three-dimensional (3D) wind field used to derive any type of air parcel trajectories, is presented. The technique is applied t o observations collected during the ESCOMPTE campagin, related to pollution studies. Turbulence that prevails in the ABL tends to quickly remove the identity of air parcels, which is the basic assumption for the trajectory construction. A strong rotation on the balloon trajectory was observed which was induced there is an important temporal and spatial change of the wind.
