Continuous Time Series of Water Vapor Profiles from a Combination of Raman Lidar and Microwave Radiometer

In this paper, we present a method to retrieve continuous water vapor profiles from a combination of a Raman lidar and a microwave radiometer. The integrated water vapor from the microwave radiometer is used to calibrate the Raman lidar operationally resulting in small biases compared to radiosondes...
