Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-010815
A display or plot that shows the vertical structure of atmospheric variables, such as wind speed, temperature, or humidity, as they evolve over time at a specific location. This type of visualization is often generated from continuous observations by instruments like radar or lidar. It provides insights into the temporal changes in the atmospheric column.
