The measurement campaign was carried during the summer of 2015/2016 in the city of São Paulo. Despite the conceptual difference between these methods, the results show great agreement between them.1-4openAccessboundary layersoptical radarplanetsdoppler effectboundary conditionsplanetary atmospheresbrazilmeteorologyair qualityair pollution controldispersionsArtigo de periódico0601517610.1051/epjconf/201817606015https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9691-5306Sem PercentilSem Percentil CiteScore
