The Determination of the Aerosol Spatial Structure in the Lower Part of the Marine Atmospheric Boundary Layer from Horizontal Lidar Data

Abstract

The long-term goal is to be able to predict the conditions for the transmittance of electromagnetic signals in the lower part of the marine atmospheric boundary layer (LP MABL). The problem calls for reliable methods of determining the relationships between the environmental factors (such as wind, waves, air humidity, etc.) and aerosol optical properties in LP MABL.
