The study evaluates how well a dual-Doppler X-band wind radar system measures wind speeds across various atmospheric conditions and sky coverage. It also demonstrates the system’s ability to resolve wind turbine wakes, using data from the 2025 Krummendeich field experiment, which marks the technology’s first deployment in Germany. We presented this work at the European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly 2026 (3–8 May), and the campaign was carried out within the framework of the project "Windpark-RADAR". A few key takeaways: Good agreement between the Dual-Doppler X-band wind radar and scanning lidar across all atmospheric conditions. Successful capture of single-turbine wake behaviors, such as meandering. Insights into spatial data coverage showed that availability is optimal during precipitation, but heavily depleted by fog.
