Monitoring Ice Crystals Clouds: Investigation of the Lidar Depolarization Ratios

A cirrus cloud dataset from a groundbased lidar in a sub-arctic station is analyzed in terms of the particle depolarization ratio. The depolarization values -δ- showed a broad distribution, ranging between 0.25 and 0.7, with a mean value of 0.38 ± 0.07. This variability is examined in correlation wi...
