Download or read book Differential Absorption Lidars for Remote Sensing of Atmospheric Pressure and Temperature Profiles written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). This book was released on 2018-07-24. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A near infrared differential absorption lidar technique is developed using atmospheric oxygen as a tracer for high resolution vertical profiles of pressure and temperature with high accuracy. Solid-state tunable lasers and high-resolution spectrum analyzers are developed to carry out ground-based and airborne measurement demonstrations and results of the measurements presented. Numerical error analysis of high-altitude airborne and spaceborne experiments is carried out, and system concepts developed for their implementation. Korb, C.
