Resumo
The threshold wind speed is a useful criterion in determining whether strong turbulence is generated within
the Stable Boundary Layer (SBL), the layer where all surface emissions remain con ned during the night.
Con dence turbulence estimates are extremely important for atmospheric transport and dispersion simulations,
although due to its complex dinamics many aspects of the SBL are neglected by numerical models that, in turn,
are the inputs and boundary conditions for the transport and dispersion simulations. Turbulence is especially
important during severe episodies like hazardous material accidental releases, for example. Turbulence intensity
can a ect the dispersion speed, released material concentration, and its reach. For many decades, remote sensing
has been an important tool in lling the gap of information and providing advances in the atmospheric sciences.
The doppler lidar is increasingly being used for micrometeoroly and Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL) studies
because of its autonomy and long range capability, in contrast with traditional techniques as radioprobes and
captive balloons. After 1 year of continuous measurements with a doppler lidar, it was possible to determine the
threshold wind speed for Ipero, Sao Paulo, Brazil. Besides threshold wind speed, it was observed that
the SBL turbulence has a straight relationship with the Low-Level Jets (LLJs) that frequently occur over the
region. The vertical turbulence distribution depends greatly on the LLJ characteristics, which in turn is highly
variable during its life cycle. The strong turbulence regime is associated to the stronger LLJs, that presents a
more de ned pattern. In contrast, weak LLJs (that generate weaker SBL turbulence) present more dispersive
characteristics in respect to the entire dataset. These di erences are seen both for the LLJ height as for the
turbulence vertical pro le. These results will contribute for the atmospheric modeling and dispersion simulations,
as well for the environmental studies at Ipero.
