Abstract: A pulsed CO2 lidar with coherent detection has been used to measure the correlation time of the backscatter of an ensemble of atmospheric aerosol particles which are illuminated by the pulsed radiation. The correlation ...

Abstract: An adaptive notch filter (ANF) is proposed for range-resolved frequency estimates of Doppler lidar atmospheric returns. The ANF is based on the spectral filtering of lidar return to remove the atmospheric contribution from ...

Abstract: rapid nature of climate change occurring in the Arctic and the difficulty climate models have in quantitatively reproducing observed changes such as sea ice loss, it is important to improve understanding of the processes ...
