Abstract Project: KOL09add


Lidarelectronics

Christoph Ritter (AWI)

Aerosol and their interaction with clouds remain one of the important shortcomings of current climate models. In addition to aerosol in-situ measurements performed by external partners in Ny-Ålesund, in KOL09 aerosol occurrences are monitored and particle properties derived by Raman lidar.
Reliable lidar signals in KARL (tropospheric & stratospheric measurements) comprise a signal dynamics of 5 orders of magnitude. This is a challenge for the counting electronics. In this project, AWI gets external advice on optimization of the electronic components in our current lidar set up.
