Description

High spectral resolution lidar measurement of aerosol backscatter profiles to detect aerosol layer boundaries and depth. Uses Haar Wavelet transform gradient detection to identify significant changes in backscatter corresponding to aerosol layers.

Typical Equipment

  • High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL)

Output Measurements

  • particulate backscatter cross section
  • aerosol layer depth
  • aerosol layer boundaries
