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

In this paper we describe the EARLINET Single Calculus Chain (SCC), a tool for the
automatic analysis of lidar measurements. The development of this tool started in the …

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

The atmospheric science community demands autonomous and quality-assured vertically
resolved measurements of aerosol and cloud properties. For this purpose, a portable lidar …

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

Multiwavelength aerosol Raman lidar in combination with polarization lidar at Praia (14.9°
N, 23.5° W), Cape Verde, is used to separate the optical properties of desert dust and …

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 …

This paper provides a model for assessing the effects of polarising optics on the signals of
typical lidar systems, which is based on the description of the individual optical elements of …

This paper presents the GARRLiC algorithm (Generalized Aerosol Retrieval from
Radiometer and Lidar Combined data) that simultaneously inverts coincident lidar and …

Abstract During the 1-year MOSAiC (Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of
Arctic Climate) expedition, the German icebreaker Polarstern drifted through Arctic Ocean …
