RISUsing Horizontal and Slant Lidar Measurements to Obtain Calibrated Aerosol Scattering Coefficients from a Coastal Lidar in Hawaii
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Sea salt aerosol concentrations in the clean marine boundary layer can be considered spatially homogeneous when averaged over space and time. Using this assumption, horizontal and slant lidar measurements are carried out ...
Aerosol Size Distributions from Genetic Inversion of Polar Nephelometer Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is shown that genetic inversions can be used to recover lognormal aerosol size distributions from multiangle optical scattering cross-section data measured by a polar nephelometer at a wavelength of 0.532 ?m. The ...
A Small Portable Mie–Rayleigh Lidar System to Measure Aerosol Optical and Spatial Properties
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The characteristics of a small, lightweight portable lidar system for measuring aerosol (Mie) scatter at wavelengths of 1064 and 532 nm are described. It uses a 20-Hz Nd:YAG pulsed laser as a source and a 12.7-cm-diameter ...
Sea-Salt Size Distributions from Breaking Waves: Implications for Marine Aerosol Production and Optical Extinction Measurements during SEAS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors' participation in the Shoreline Environment Aerosol Study (SEAS) involved measurements focused on the coastal aerosol size distribution and related optical measurements, including aerosol light scattering, ...
Vertical and Horizontal Aerosol Scattering Fields over Bellows Beach, Oahu, during the SEAS Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Scanning lidar measurements were carried out during the Shoreline Environment Aerosol Study (SEAS) experiment (19?30 April 2000) to characterize the aerosol scattering fields in the coastal marine boundary layer at Bellows ...
