A Multi-wavelength Mini Lidar for Measurements of Marine Boundary Layer Aerosol and Water Vapor Fields

Abstract

Our goals are to calibrate a multi-wavelength scanning lidar system and use it to characterize the aerosol and water vapor fields in the coastal marine boundary layer. Once representative data on this boundary layer are collected, we will use these data to develop models of the aerosol fields.
