Abstract
Abstract Finescale temperature and velocity measurements with multiple vertically spaced cold-wire and hot-wire sensors on the Cooperative Institute for Research in the Environmental Sciences (CIRES) tethered lifting system (TLS) were produced during the Cooperative Atmosphere–Surface Exchange Study-1999 (CASES-99). The various calibration methods are presented as well as algorithms to extract high-resolution estimates of the energy dissipation rate ϵ and the temperature structure constant C2T. The instrumentation is capable of measurements of ϵ ≈ 10−7 m2 s−3 and C2T ≈ 10−6 K2 m−2/3.
