| Abstract: | Summary
Using a triaxial Doppler sodar the planetary boundary-layer structure and the wind flow dynamics at the Arctic site Ny-?lesund
have been studied. The relationship between winds measured at Ny-?lesund and at the nearby atmospheric research station on
Zeppelin mountain was investigated for the first time. While Ny-?lesund receives predominantly katabatic flow (from 120°)
from the Kongsvegen glacier, the field is rotated within the lowest 500 m and arrives at Zeppelin from southerly directions.
