Aircraft Lidar Sensitivity Study for Measuring Water Vapor,
Abstract
The amount of water in the optical path between an airborne measurement platform and a target is responsible for the difference between the actual and the measurement target spectral radiance. In situ measurements of water vapor can be limited by outgassing from the sensor and/or its environment. A study was performed to investigate the use of lidar remote sensing techniques for the remote measurement of water vapor from a measurement aircraft such as the FISTA NKC-135A.
