Airborne Lidar Measurements of Aerosol Optical Properties During Safari-2000
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of planetary boundary layer (PBL) aerosol optical depth analysis and profiles of aerosol extinction are examined as a function of regional location using the Cloud Physics Lidar (CPL) onboard the NASA ER-2 high altitude aircraft during the SAFARI-2000 field campaign.
