Abstract
Wind profile is very important especially for numerical weather prediction and investigation of spatial atmospheric structure. Current global observation is significantly biased to water- and heat-related measurements with relatively low vertical resolution. Global wind profiling with high vertical resolution would improve the numerical weather prediction skills. Space-based Doppler Wind Lidar (DWL) is one of useful approaches for global wind profiling with the high vertical resolution. In the paper, we describe a space-based DWL.
