Proceedings ArticleDOI
Self-aligned heterodyne laser radar system for surface displacement monitoring
TL;DR: In this article, a reference-beam, continuous-wave, heterodyne low-power radar prototype is presented, which measures both magnitude and sign of the radial component of the displacement velocity.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Dimensionless parameters for lidar performance characterization
Adolfo Comerón,Ravil R. Agishev +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a set of three dimensionless parameters is proposed to characterize lidar systems, which are based on an asymptotic approximation of the output signal-to-noise ratio as a function of the input optical power reaching the photoreceiver when there is no background radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparative analysis of aerosol optical coefficients and their associated errors retrieved from pure-rotational and vibro-rotational raman lidar signals
José Alex Zenteno-Hernández,Adolfo Comerón,Alejandro Rodríguez-Gómez,Constantino Muñoz-Porcar,Giuseppe D'Amico,Michaël Sicard +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantify the improvement obtained with a purely rotational Raman (PRR) channel over a vibro-rotational R Raman channel, used in an aerosol lidar with elastic and Raman channels, in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), effective vertical resolution, and absolute and relative uncertainties associated to the retrieved aerosol optical (extinction and backscatter) coefficients.

Aerosol radiative effect during the summer 2019 heatwave producedpartly by an inter-continental Saharan dust outbreak. 1. Shortwavedust-induced direct impact
Carmen Córdoba-Jabonero,Michaël Sicard,María-Ángeles López-Cayuela,Albert Ansmann,Adolfo Comerón,María Paz Zorzano,María Paz Zorzano,Alejandro Rodríguez-Gómez,Constantino Muñoz-Pocar +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the shortwave (SW) direct radiative effect during the summer 2019 heatwave produced partly by a moderate, long-lasting Saharan dust outbreak over Europe is analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance assessment of a homodyne laser radar for surface displacement monitoring
TL;DR: In this paper, measurements under varied conditions performed with a ho-modyne laser radar prototype for surface displacement monitoring are presented, including constant and variable velocity measurements from both a disk and a belt target.
