Lidar Soundings Between 30 and 100 km Altitude During Day and Night for Observation of Temperatures, Gravity Waves and Tides

Ground-based temperature measurements by lidar are an important tool for the understanding of long-term temperature changes as well as the propagation of gravity waves and tides. Though, mesospheric soundings are often limited to nighttime conditions due to the low signal-tonoise ratio during the da...
