Description
Summary:A database containing spectrum and cross-section of the fluorescence of substances has been made. In test of forest environment monitoring by our Laser-Induced Fluorescence Spectrum (LIFS) lidar, the database showed that the origin substance of the aerosol observed by the lidar was cedar pollen, and the concentration was calculated using the cross-section. In the urban atmosphere monitoring, three substances stored in the database were proposed to be the origins of the aerosol. Based on these experiments, we discuss the usefulness of the fluorescence database in lidar observations.
