Short summary
This study evaluates the impact of an enhanced sampling rate on turbulence measurements using the Vaisala WindCube v2.1 lidar profiler. A prototype configuration, sampling 4 times faster than the commercial setup, is compared to the commercial configuration, with reference measurements provided by a 2D sonic anemometer. The prototype lidar captures greater variance, resulting in turbulence estimates that are more closely aligned with the reference.
