Dual-wavelength CO2 Lidar Method for Distinguishing Ice, Water, or Mixed-phase Clouds

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A dual-wavelength CO2 lidar technique is proposed that shows excellent promise for discriminating between ice and water within clouds. It could potentially provide more quantitative measurements of mixed-phase clouds than the depolarization technique of shortwave lidars.
