摘要：
ESA's Doppler Wind lidar mission, the Atmospheric Dynamics Mission (ADM-Aeolus, hereafter abbreviated to Aeolus), was chosen as an Earth Explorer Core mission within the Living Planet Programme in 1999. It shall demonstrate the potential of space-based Doppler Wind lidars for operational measurements of wind profiles and their use in Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) and climate research. Spin-off products are profiles of cloud and aerosol optical properties. Aeolus carries the novel Doppler Wind lidar instrument ALADIN. The mission prime is Airbus Defence & Space UK (ADS-UK), and the instrument prime is Airbus Defence & Space France (ADS-F). In April 2016, the ALADIN instrument was successfully tested in ambient conditions by ADS F in Toulouse. The instrument was then shipped to ADS-UK in Stevenage for integration on the satellite platform. The integration was completed in January 2017 and the satellite was then shipped to Intespace in Toulouse, where it will undergo mechanical testing followed by thermal vacuum testing and the further launch preparations in Belgium and France. The launch is scheduled in December 2017, on board a Vega rocket from French Guiana. In March 2017, an Aeolus Calibration and Validation (CAL/VAL) Rehearsal Workshop will be held at MeteoFrance in Toulouse, France. The workshop will bringing industry, the user community and ESA together to prepare the Aeolus Commissioning and Operational Phases. In this paper, the Aeolus mission, its status and launch preparation activities are described.
