Abstract
Acoustic sounder design characteristics and operating parameters are d escribed. Emphasis is given to the recent miniature construction of th e high resolution, high frequency, acoustic sounders and examples of m odern applications are presented. Various atmospheric features recorde d by the systems, including thermal plumes, temperature inversions and waves are given. Also typical examples of quantitative measurements a re shown with emphasis to wind statistics.
