Atmospheric internal waves (AIWs) in the boundary layer of atmosphere have been studied experimentally with the use of Halo Photonics pulsed coherent Doppler wind lidar Stream Line. The measurements were carried out over 14–28 August 2015 on the western coast of Lake Baikal (51°50′47.17′′ N, 104°53′31.21′′ E), Russia. The lidar was placed at a distance of 340 m from Lake Baikal at a height of 180 m above the lake level.

A total of six AIW occurrences have been revealed. This always happened in the presence of one or two (in five out of six cases) narrow jet streams at heights of approximately 200 and 700 m above ground level at the lidar location. The period of oscillations of the wave addend of the wind velocity components in four AIW events was 9 min, and in the other two it was approximately 18 and 6.5 min. The amplitude of oscillations of the horizontal wind velocity component was about 1 m s⁻¹, while the amplitude of oscillations of the vertical velocity was 3 times smaller. In most cases, internal waves were observed for 45 min (5 wave oscillations with a period of 9 min). Only once the AIW lifetime was about 4 h.
