Short summary
A simple adaptive variant of the Doppler Beam Swinging (DBS) method is presented to improve the availability of wind velocity measurements in profiling lidars, particularly at higher altitudes. Following validation at the Østerild test site in Denmark, using three profiling lidars compared with cup anemometers and wind vanes, excellent agreement was observed. Availability assessments indicated a maximum increase of 16.9 percentage points over the standard approach.
