Short summary
We studied how turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) changes in the lower atmosphere over Shenzhen, focusing on its role in weather and climate. Using advanced wind lidar technology, we tracked how TKE varies with height and across seasons. We found that heat near the ground drives turbulence, while wind effects become stronger higher up. Our results help improve weather and climate models by providing better data on how turbulence behaves in the atmosphere, aiding understanding of climate change.
