A wind profiler obtains wind information using which of the following instruments?
A)aerovane
B)theodolite
C)Doppler radar
D)radiosonde

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A wind profiler obtains wind information using Doppler radar. Doppler radar can detect the direction and speed of winds by analyzing the frequency shifts in the signals returned from particles in the atmosphere. Aerovane and theodolite are used for measuring wind speed and direction at a specific location, while radiosonde are used for measuring atmospheric parameters like temperature, pressure, and humidity in addition to wind speed and direction.
