Elastic backscatter lidar is an established method useful to characterize the particles forming
an atmospheric aerosol. Fundamental to lidar measurements are the extinction and …

Scientific findings from the last decades have clearly highlighted the need for a more
comprehensive approach to atmospheric change processes. In fact, observation of …

The European Aerosol Research Lidar Network, EARLINET, was founded in 2000 as a
research project for establishing a quantitative, comprehensive, and statistically significant …

The NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) airborne High Spectral Resolution Lidar
(HSRL) on the NASA B200 aircraft has acquired extensive datasets of aerosol extinction …

Height profiles of the extinction and the backscatter coefficients in cirrus clouds are
determined independently from elastic-and inelastic-(Raman) backscatter signals. An …

A compact, highly robust airborne High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL) that provides
measurements of aerosol backscatter and extinction coefficients and aerosol depolarization …

A combined Raman elastic-backscatter lidar has been developed. A XeCl excimer laser is
used as the radiation source. Inelastic Raman backscatter signals are spectrally separated …

During four aircraft field experiments with the DLR research aircraft Falcon in 1998 (LACE),
2006 (SAMUM-1) and 2008 (SAMUM-2 and EUCAARI), airborne High Spectral Resolution …

Multi AXis Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (MAX‐DOAS) observations of the
oxygen dimer O4 which can serve as a new method for the determination of atmospheric …

We present an inversion algorithm for the retrieval of particle size distribution parameters, ie,
mean (effective) radius, number, surface area, and volume concentration, and complex …
