MEASUREMENT OF OZONE AND WATER VAPOR TRANSPORT USING AIRBORNE DIFFERENTIAL ABSORPTION AND DOPPLER LIDARS

摘要

Differential absorption lidars can be combined with surface-based wind measurements or co-deployed with Doppler lidars to provide measurements of species transport in the boundary layer. We describe here investigations of ozone transport in Houston using an airborne ozone DIAL combined with wind profiler measurements, and also study moisture transport in a low level jet by co-deploying airborne DIAL and Doppler systems during the International H_2O Project.
