Airborne Raman Lidar and its Applications for Atmospheric Process Studies

Airborne Raman Lidar and its Applications for Atmospheric Process Studies

Although ground-base Raman lidars are widely used for atmospheric observations, the capabilities of airborne Raman lidar is not fully explored. Here we presented two recently developed airborne Raman lidar systems for the studies of atmospheric boundary layer process, aerosols, and clouds. The syste...
