Looking Into CALIPSO Climatological Products: Evaluation and Suggestions from EARLINET
CALIPSO (Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Pathfinder Satellite Observations) Level 3 (CL3) data were compared against EARLINET (European Aerosol Research Lidar Network) monthly averages obtained by profiles during satellite overpasses. Data from EARLINET stations

CALIPSO Retrieval of Instantaneous Faint Aerosol [PDF]
Abstract. Aerosols significantly affect the Earth-atmosphere energy balance and climate change by acting as cloud condensation nuclei. Particularly, the susceptibility of clouds to aerosols is more pronounced when the aerosols are faint. However, previous methodologies generally miss these faint aerosols and their climate effect based on instantaneous ...

Reconciliation of essential process parameters for an enhanced predictability of Arctic stratospheric ozone loss and its climate interactions [PDF]
Significant reductions in stratospheric ozone occur inside the polar vortices each spring when chlorine radicals produced by heterogeneous reactions on cold particle surfaces in winter destroy ozone mainly in two catalytic cycles, the ClO dimer cycle and

Laser pulse bidirectional reflectance from CALIPSO mission [PDF]
Abstract. This paper presents an innovative retrieval method that translates the CALIOP land surface laser pulse returns into the surface bidirectional reflectance. To better analyze the surface returns, the CALIOP receiver impulse response and the downlinked samples' distribution at 30 m vertical resolution are discussed.

EARLINET evaluation of the CATS Level 2 aerosol backscatter coefficient product [PDF]
We present the evaluation activity of the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network (EARLINET) for the quantitative assessment of the Level 2 aerosol backscatter coefficient product derived by the Cloud-Aerosol Transport System (CATS) aboard the ...

A comparison among four different retrieval methods for ice-cloud properties using data from CloudSat, CALIPSO, and MODIS [PDF]
The A-Train constellation of satellites provides a new capability to measure vertical cloud profiles that leads to more detailed information on ice-cloud microphysical properties than has been possible up to now.

An Investigation of Optically Very Thin Ice Clouds from Ground-Based ARM Raman Lidars
Optically very thin ice clouds from the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) and ground-based Raman lidars (RL) at the atmospheric radiation measurement (ARM) sites of the Southern Great Plains (SGP) and Tropical ...
