Potential of polarization lidar to provide profiles of CCN- and INP-relevant aerosol parameters

Potential of polarization lidar to provide profiles of CCN- and INP-relevant aerosol parameters

We investigate the potential of polarization lidar to provide vertical profiles of aerosol parameters from which cloud condensation nucleus (CCN) and ice nucleating particle (INP) number concentrations can be estimated. We show that height profiles of particle number concentrations <i>n<...
