Implementation and Validation of Dynamical Downscaling in a Microscale Simulation of a Lake Michigan Land Breeze

Figure 9

Backscatter gradient variance plots for the simulated backscatter (A) and lidar backscatter (B). Each of the two (a, b) regions represents vertical average variances for the corresponding regions labeled (a) and (b) on the vertical backscatter cross-sections underneath them. Marked in the variance plots are the depths of the land breeze and land breeze head.
