Reducing the error of lidar determination of the aerosol concentration during the probing of a weakly turbid atmosphere

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Because the characteristics of the atmospheric aerosol need to be determined at significant distances from the lidar, methods are considered for interpreting weak backscattering signals. It is established that the error of determining the aerosol concentration can be substantially reduced by using an effective statistical-processing algorithm and weighting factors.
