Long-range transport of Saharan dust to northern Europe : The 11-16 October 2001 outbreak observed with EARLINET
(2003-12-24)
[1] The spread of mineral particles over southwestern, western, and central Europe resulting from a strong Saharan dust outbreak in October 2001 was observed at 10 stations of the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network ...
Unexpectedly high aerosol load in the free troposphere over central Europe in spring/summer 2003
(2003-11-29)
We observed particle extinction coefficients of 5 30 Mm(-1) and particle optical depths of 0.03 - 0.11 at UV and visible wavelengths in the free troposphere from May to July, 2003. In May and early June distinct aerosol ...
Saharan dust over a central European EARLINET-AERONET site : Combined observations with Raman lidar and Sun photometer
(2003-06-17)
[1] Combined observations with an advanced aerosol water-vapor temperature Raman lidar and a Sun photometer are used for a detailed characterization of geometrical and optical properties of a continental-scale Saharan dust ...
Optical and microphysical characterization of biomass-burning and industrial-pollution aerosols from multiwavelength lidar and aircraft measurements
(2002-11-16)
[1] During the Lindenberg Aerosol Characterization Experiment (LACE 98) simultaneous measurements with ground-based and airborne lidars and with two aircraft equipped with aerosol in situ instrumentation were performed. ...
Relative-humidity profiling in the troposphere with a Raman lidar
(2002-10-20)
We describe a Raman-lidar-based approach to acquiring profiles of the relative humidity of air. For this purpose we combined in one instrument the Raman-lidar techniques that are used for the profiling of water vapor and ...
European pollution outbreaks during ACE 2 : Optical particle properties inferred from multiwavelength lidar and star-Sun photometry
(2002-08)
[1] On the basis of multiwavelength backscatter and 532-nm extinction profiling with lidar at Sagres (37degreesN, 9degreesW), southern Portugal, and optical depth observations with a star photometer at the lidar site and ...
Dual-wavelength Raman lidar observations of the extinction-to-backscatter ratio of Saharan dust
(2002-05-01)
[1] For the first time, height profiles of the extinction-to-backscatter ratio (lidar ratio) of desert dust particles were simultaneously measured at 355 and 532 nm. The observations were performed with an advanced Raman ...
European pollution outbreaks during ACE 2 : Lofted aerosol plumes observed with Raman lidar at the Portuguese coast
(2001-09-27)
During the Second Aerosol Characterization Experiment (ACE 2) in the summer of 1997, four pollution outbreaks from the European continent were monitored at Sagres (37 degreesN, 9 degreesW), Portugal, by applying the Raman ...
Scanning 6-wavelength 11-channel aerosol lidar
(2000-11)
A transportable multiple-wavelength lidar is presented, which is used for the profiling of optical and physical aerosol properties. Two Nd:YAG and two dye lasers in combination with frequency-doubling crystals emit ...
Physical properties of the Indian aerosol plume derived from six-wavelength lidar observations on 25 March 1999 of the Indian Ocean Experiment
(2000-05-01)
A major pollution outbreak from the Indian subcontinent was observed with a six-wavelength aerosol lidar at Hulule island (4.1 degrees N, 73.3 degrees E) on 25 March 1999 during the Indian Ocean Experiment. From the observed ...
