Abstract

The Raman lidar technique has proven to be a powerful method for profiling atmospheric water vapor, one of the most important variables that characterizes the atmosphere. Detailed evaluation of the performance of Raman lidar systems (or lidar systems in general) is complicated by the lack of an appropriate instrument that can provide accurate measurements for intercomparison purposes. In this paper, we describe a detailed intercomparison program performed using two advanced Raman lidar systems. The paper treats in detail only a nighttime intercomparison of water vapor profiles, but the intercomparison program itself will feature daytime and nighttime measurements of both water vapor and aerosol scattering ratios.
大气水汽拉曼激光雷达剖面的评价:两种先进系统的同时测量
拉曼激光雷达技术已被证明是一种分析大气水蒸气的强大方法,水蒸气是表征大气最重要的变量之一。拉曼激光雷达系统(或一般的激光雷达系统)性能的详细评估是复杂的,因为缺乏一种合适的仪器,可以提供准确的测量结果进行相互比较。在本文中,我们描述了使用两个先进的拉曼激光雷达系统执行的详细的相互比较程序。这篇论文只详细讨论了夜间对水蒸气剖面的相互比较,但是相互比较程序本身将以白天和夜间对水蒸气和气溶胶散射比的测量为特色。
