Dataset: Estimating turbulence-induced link losses in an urban environment from observed and numerically estimated Cn2

This repository contains the simulation configurations, evaluation scripts, and data descriptions for the WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) study of the Photonloop optical link in Eindhoven, NL (Aug-Sep 2025). Directory structure: data: Description and source information for the vertically interpolated WRF output (`wrfout_interp_z60.nc`) and KNMI validation data. eval: Python scripts for data processing and figure generation. evaluate.py: Main evaluation and plotting script. link_losses.py: Module for calculating optical link parameters (e.g., beam divergence). sim: WRF configuration files. namelist.wps: Domain configuration (9km -> 3km -> 1km nesting). namelist_sim_*.input: Model physics and dynamics settings for different simulation runs. Data Access The simulation results and validation data references are documented in `data/README.md`. Scintillometer (Cn2) observations are available upon request from the authors.
