  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "An acronym for acoustic detection and ranging, a remote sensing technique that uses sound waves to probe the lower atmosphere. It operates by emitting acoustic pulses and analyzing the backscattered echoes, which are influenced by temperature and wind variations. Acdar systems can provide continuous profiles of wind speed, wind direction, and temperature structure in the planetary boundary layer.",
