Abstract
Liquid water Raman signal was measured and normalized by Mie and water vapor Raman signals. In simple theoretical point of view, these normalized cloud liquid water lidar signals have information about the aerosol hydroscopic characteristics and cloud size information. We obtained the qualitative information for these parameters at the cloud and normal atmospheric aerosol. Here we have discussed the possibility of characterizing the aerosol and liquid cloud by using normalized liquid water lidar.
