Lidar ratios of stratospheric volcanic ash and sulfate aerosols retrieved from CALIOP measurements
We apply a two-way transmittance constraint to nighttime CALIOP (Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization) observations of volcanic aerosol layers to retrieve estimates of the particulate lidar ratio (<i>S</i><sub>p</sub>) at 532 nm. This technique is applied to th...
