Abstract
A ground-based Doppler wind lidar for tropospheric wind speed measurement is being developed for environmental applications such as pollutants distribution studies and climatology investigations preceding the choice of sites for power plants and factories. This paper gives a short overview on specifications and design concepts of the system and reports the obtained results about the developing and testing of the pulsed CO2 TEA laser source. The lidar system is scheduled to be ready for laboratory measurement next year and for field use within a couple of years.
