Fig. 4. Left panel: The statistical uncertainty of the OEM retrieval (red curve) is plotted against the statistical uncertainty of the traditional retrievals. The uncertainty of the retrieval for the stratospheric and tropospheric lidar systems respectively are shown in black and blue. Right panel: The vertical resolution of the OEM retrieval is shown in red. The vertical resolution of the traditional calculation from the tropospheric lidar system is shown in blue, while the vertical resolution of the retrieved profile produced from the stratospheric lidar system is shown in black.
