Portable Raman Lidar Polly(XT) for Automated Profiling of Aerosol Backscatter, Extinction, and Depolarization
(2009-11)
Two versions of the portable aerosol Raman lidar system (Polly) are presented. First, the two-channel prototype is depicted. It has been developed for the independent and simultaneous determination of particle backscatter ...
Measuring atmospheric composition change
(2009-10)
Scientific findings from the last decades have clearly highlighted the need for a more comprehensive approach to atmospheric change processes. In fact, observation of atmospheric composition variables has been an important ...
Evolution of the ice phase in tropical altocumulus : SAMUM lidar observations over Cape Verde
(2009-09-16)
The formation of the ice phase in tropical altocumulus has been studied with multiwavelength aerosol-cloud Raman lidar, wind Doppler lidar, and radiosonde, providing information on geometrical and optical properties, cloud ...
Vertically resolved separation of dust and smoke over Cape Verde using multiwavelength Raman and polarization lidars during Saharan Mineral Dust Experiment 2008
(2009-07-08)
Multiwavelength aerosol Raman lidar in combination with polarization lidar at Praia (14.9 degrees N, 23.5 degrees W), Cape Verde, is used to separate the optical properties of desert dust and biomass burning particles as ...
Dust and smoke transport from Africa to South America : Lidar profiling over Cape Verde and the Amazon rainforest
(2009-06-02)
Quasi-simultaneous vertically resolved multiwavelength aerosol Raman lidar observations were conducted in the near field (Praia, Cape Verde, 15 degrees N, 23.5 degrees W) and in the far field (Manaus, Amazon basin, Brazil, ...
Regional dust model performance during SAMUM 2006
(2009-02-07)
Traditionally there has been a lack of intensive measurements directly over dust sources for validating the accuracy of dust models. Utilizing the valuable and unprecedented SAMUM 2006 field campaign dust dataset in North ...
Dust mobilization and transport in the northern Sahara during SAMUM 2006 - a meteorological overview
(2009-02)
The SAMUM field campaign in southern Morocco in May/June 2006 provides valuable data to study the emission, and the horizontal and vertical transports of mineral dust in the Northern Sahara. Radiosonde and lidar observations ...
Optical and microphysical properties of severe haze and smoke aerosol measured by integrated remote sensing techniques in Gwangju, Korea
(2009-02)
Aerosol optical and microphysical parameters from severe haze events observed in October 2005 at Gwangju, Korea (35.10 N, 126.53 E) were determined from the ground using a multi-wavelength Raman lidar, a sunphotometer, and ...
Depolarization ratio profiling at several wavelengths in pure Saharan dust during SAMUM 2006
(2009-02)
Vertical profiles of the linear particle depolarization ratio of pure dust clouds were measured during the Saharan Mineral Dust Experiment (SAMUM) at Ouarzazate, Morocco (30.9 degrees N, -6.9 degrees E), close to source ...
Regional Saharan dust modelling during the SAMUM 2006 campaign
(2009-02)
The regional dust model system LM-MUSCAT-DES was developed in the framework of the SAMUM project. Using the unique comprehensive data set of near-source dust properties during the 2006 SAMUM field campaign, the performance ...
