Satellite remote sensing of air quality has evolved dramatically over the last decade. Global
observations are now available for a wide range of species including aerosols, tropospheric …

Abstract The Cloud‐Aerosol Transport System (CATS) is an elastic backscatter lidar that was
launched on 10 January 2015 to the International Space Station (ISS). CATS provides both …

Abstract The Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) is a two-
wavelength polarization lidar that performs global profiling of aerosols and clouds in the …

The Cloud‐Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP, pronounced the same as
“calliope”) is a spaceborne two‐wavelength polarization lidar that has been acquiring global …

Fully Automated Detection of Cloud and Aerosol Layers in the CALIPSO Lidar
Measurements in: Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology Volume 26 Issue 10 (2009) …

We compared CALIPSO column aerosol optical depths at 0.532 μm to measurements at 147
AERONET sites, synchronized to within 30 min of satellite overpass times during a 3-yr …

An analytical inversion method has been developed to estimate the vertical profile of SO 2
emissions from volcanic eruptions. The method uses satellite-observed total SO 2 columns …

The CALIOP instrument has demonstrated tremendous potential in terms of oceanic
detection. Nighttime measurements from spaceborne lidar increase knowledge of the …

This paper focuses on polar stratospheric cloud (PSC) measurements by the CALIOP (Cloud-
Aerosol LIdar with Orthogonal Polarization) lidar system onboard the CALIPSO (Cloud …

This study revisits the classical problem of quantifying the radiative effects of unique cloud
types in the era of spaceborne active observations. The radiative effects of nine cloud types …
