Abstract
- The limited availability of wind profile measurements has hindered atmospheric models and climate systems' understanding. The European Space Agency's Aeolus mission's space-based Doppler wind lidar technology could solve this issue by measuring wind profiles in Near-Real-Time, providing valuable data for Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. A case study using the COSMO NWP model demonstrates the potential of Aeolus data in improving NWP models by examining the impact of Medicane IANOS in September 2020 over the Thessaly plain. The study aims to improve our ability to predict severe weather events and advance our understanding of Earth's atmosphere. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
