| 627 | Wind speed of gust | Speed is the magnitude of velocity. Wind is defined as a two-dimensional (horizontal) air velocity vector, with no vertical component. (Vertical motion in the atmosphere has the standard name upward_air_velocity.) The wind speed is the magnitude of the wind velocity. A gust is a sudden brief period of high wind speed. In an observed timeseries of wind speed, the gust wind speed can be indicated by a cell_methods of maximum for the time-interval. In an atmospheric model which has a parametrised calculation of gustiness, the gust wind speed may be separately diagnosed from the wind speed. | 901a3013-e318-4060-8a57-d1195e381139 | https://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/standard_name/wind_speed_of_gust/ |

| 538 | cavity ring-down spectrometer | A cavity ring-down spectrometer (CRDS) is a type of analytical instrument used to measure the concentration of trace gases in a sample. It works by measuring the rate at which light decays inside a highly-reflective cavity filled with the sample gas. When laser light is introduced into the cavity, it bounces back and forth between two highly reflective mirrors, creating a standing wave of light. As the light interacts with the sample gas, some of it is absorbed, causing the light intensity to decay over time. By measuring the time it takes for the light to decay, and the rate of decay, the CRDS can determine the concentration of the sample gas with high sensitivity and precision. | fa0479b8-9cef-402a-8c62-6ef21cbdc7cb | AWI |

| 137 | chirp | Chirp systems emit a swept-frequency signal, meaning that the transmitted signal is emitted over a period of time and over a set range of frequencies. This repeatable (transmitted) waveform can be varied in terms of pulse length, frequency bandwidth, and phase/amplitude. A matched filter, or correlation process, collapses the swept frequency modulated (FM) received signal into a pulse of short duration, maximizing the signal-to-noise-ratio. The reflected signal is received by a tuned transducer array that generates the outgoing acoustic energy. Chirps operate within a range of 400Hz - 24 kHz and are used for the first 20-30 metres of unconsolidated sediments.(sub bottom profiler) | cd4c962d-7bd2-44c1-b47b-8621094dfc06 | https://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/CHRP |

Functioning in one of two operational modes (ocean or ice), the Radar Altimeter provides information on significant wave height, surface wind speed, sea surface elevation which relates to ocean currents, the surface geoid and tides, plus various parameters over sea ice and ice sheets. RA operates by timing the two-way delay for a short duration radio frequency pulse, transmitted vertically downwards. The required level of accuracy in range measurement calls for a pulse compression (chirp) technique. In ocean mode a chirped pulse of 20 microsecond duration is generated with a band width of 330 MHz. For tracking in ice mode an increased dynamic range is used, obtained by reducing the chirp bandwidth by a factor of four to 82.5 MHz, though resulting in a coarser resolution. RA operates in the Ku- band at 13.8 GHz, with an accuracy in range better than 10cm.
