The GSFC Raman lidar measures temperature in the troposphere as well as water vapor and aerosols (Whiteman et al. 1992a). Strauch et al. (1971) demonstrated that atmospheric temperature can be determined using the Raman backscatter from nitrogen and Hauchecorne et al. (1992) used the Raman vibrational scattering from nitrogen to calculate temperature in the lower stratosphere. In this paper, we present density and temperature profiles in the troposphere using the Raman vibrational scattering from nitrogen.
