DIAL-DOAS TECHNIQUE FOR LASER SOUNDING OF THE GASEOUS COMPOSITION OF THE ATMOSPHERE

摘要

A technique is developed for lidar measurements of atmospheric gases on the basis of differential absorption lidar and differential optical absorption spectroscopy. The DIAL-DOAS technique is tested for possibilities of lidar sounding of trace atmospheric gases. Simulation results of lidar measurements of trace atmospheric gases in the 3-4 μm range are described.
