Figure 13 shows root-mean-square errors in radial velocity (RMSE_VR) for the three
experiments (EL30, EL20, and EL17). The EL30 RMSE_VR (black line in Fig. 13) was the
smallest among the three experiments. The EL20 (red line) and EL17 (blue line) RMSE_VR
both increased with height, while the RMSE_VR for all three experiments was small below 5
km ASL. The RMSE_VR and the root-mean-square error of the retrieved vertical velocity
(RMSE_W) are closely related (Fig. 14). Differences in RMSE_W among the three
experiments are relatively small below 5 km ASL and relatively large above 7 km ASL.
