Lidar Techniques for Remote Sensing of Atmospheric Temperature and Pressure

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

A variety of lidar techniques based upon differential absorption, multi-color laser altimetry, resonance-fluorescence and Raman scattering have been developed to measure atmospheric pressure and temperature in the troposphere, stratosphere and mesosphere. The underlying principles for these techniques are reviewed and experimental results are discussed.
