On the Retrieval of Mixing Height from Ceilometers

The subject of this thesis is the application of optical backscatter measurements to locate a special property of the lowest part of the atmosphere -- the mixing height. Mixing height is the altitude of the top of the layer where all the fluxes emitted at the ground become well mixed. Since Holzwor...
