Atmospheric remote sensing with MiniMPL

摘要：

　　There is a trend in Lidar industry to develop compact,lightweight and low power consumption Aerosol Lidar for fast and ubiquitous monitoring of the atmospheric event.This paper introduces a new product Mini Micro Pulse Lidar (MPL) from Sigma Space Corp.Key advantages for aerosol measurements with the new MiniMPL design are discussed.Factors affecting mobile measurement quality such as thermal stability are also studied.The MiniMPL data is compared to the data from Legacy Micro Pulse Lidar (MPL).The results show good agreement.Finally some data from NASA Discover-AQ campaign are presented,in which three MiniMPLs are deployed to monitor to air quality across the Washington DC area in summer 2011.
