A global vertically resolved aerosol data set covering more than 10 years of observations at
more than 20 measurement sites distributed from 63∘ N to 52∘ S and 72∘ W to 124∘ E has …

Lidars are active optical remote sensing instruments with unique capabilities for atmospheric
sounding. A manifold of atmospheric variables can be profiled using different types of lidar …

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

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

We summarize our Raman lidar observations which were carried out in Europe, Asia, and
Africa during the past 10 years, with focus on particle extinction‐to‐backscatter ratios (lidar …

Continuous lidar observations of the top height of the boundary layer (BL top) have been
performed at Leipzig (51.3° N, 12.4° E), Germany, since August 2005. The results of …

Triple-wavelength lidar observations of the depolarization ratio and the backscatter
coefficient of marine aerosol as a function of relative humidity (RH) are presented with a 5 …

The polarization-lidar photometer networking (POLIPHON) method for separating dust and
non-dust aerosol backscatter and extinction, volume, and mass concentration is extended to …

Atmospheric aerosols play an important role in many atmospheric processes. Although only
a minor constituent of the atmosphere, they have appreciable influence on the Earth's …

An intercomparison of aerosol backscatter lidar algorithms was performed in 2001 within the
framework of the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network to Establish an Aerosol …
