Capabilities of an Automatic Lidar Ceilometer to Retrieve Aerosol Characteristics within the Planetary Boundary Layer

Continuous observation and quantitative retrieval of aerosol backscatter coefficients are important in the study of air quality and climate in metropolitan areas such as New York City. Ceilometers are ideal for this application, but aerosol backscatter coefficient retrievals from ceilometers are cha...
