Comparison of aerosol lidar retrieval methods for boundary layer height detection using ceilometer aerosol backscatter data
Three algorithms for estimating the boundary layer heights are assessed: an aerosol gradient method, a cluster analysis method, and a Haar wavelet method. Over 40 daytime clear-sky radiosonde profiles are used to compare aerosol backscatter boundary layer heights retrieved by a Vaisala CL31 ceilomet...
