Lidar to determine the fractions of ice, liquid and water vapor in polar tropospheric clouds

A new Lidar combining Raman spectroscopy and linear polarization analysis is presented. This new instrument identifies the fraction of ice, liquid, and water vapor in low level polar tropospheric clouds and provides the polarimetric S and P state of the backscattering 532 nm Lidar signal. An overvie...
