摘要
Laser remote sensing techniques are new tools for experimental studies of the planetary boundary layer. Backscatter lidar can make use of differences in the aerosol distribution to characterize the layer structure and to reveal properties of the stratification. Differential absorption lidar can be used to retrieve profiles of important trace gases, in particular water vapor. Doppler lidar using heterodyne detection can be employed to retrieve important components of the turbulent wind field. High temporal and vertical resolution in combination with continuous measurement capability allow to study major characteristics of boundary layer processes. These techniques are briefly discussed, and examples of measurements from field campaigns are provided to illustrate the capabilities.
