Analysis of Aerosol Transport

Abstract

The report presents a detailed description of the recently installed, and currently functioning, lidar system, including data acquisition and processing. Extensive mathematical and theoretical procedures have been worked out for calibration of the system, using simultaneously acquired aerosol and aerological data, and for evaluation of the return signals once the system is absolutely calibrated. The procedures are described in detail. Examples of calibration measurements are presented and discussed.
