Abstract
This paper describes an iterative method for extracting single-scattering contributions in the retrieval of aerosol extinction profiles from lidar signals. The iterative procedure is formulated by use of the lidar solution with introducing a multiple-scattering ratio as a correction factor, which is calculated by the Monte Carlo method. The iterative method is applied to an experimental signal observed by a multi-wavelength lidar.
