Development of a high-altitude airborne dial system: The Lidar Atmospheric Sensing Experiment (LASE) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
The ability of a Differential Absorption Lidar (DIAL) system to measure vertical profiles of H2O in the lower atmosphere was demonstrated both in ground-based and airborne experiments.

Height‐Dependent Sensitivity of Cloud Scales to Surface Temperature Anomaly Observed by Active Satellites

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract As a key macrophysical property, cloud horizontal scale plays a critical role in cloud radiative effect (CRE), precipitation and convective structures. Until now, however, how cloud scales vary with surface temperature anomaly and their subsequent impacts on CRE and precipitation remains unclear.

Measurements of Water Vapor Profiles with Compact DIAL in the Tokyo Metropolitan Area

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
In recent years, the frequency of occurrence of locally heavy rainfall that can cause extensive damages, has been increasing in Japan. For early prediction of heavy rainfall, it is useful to measure the water vapor vertical distribution upwind cumulus ...

Latent Heat Fluxes over Complex Terrain Measured by Airborne Water Vapour and Wind Lidars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The combination of a water vapour and a wind lidar on an aircraft is an interesting new tool that allows to measure latent heat flux profiles and to portray the small- to mesoscale variability beneath the aircraft trajectory with high accuracy and ...

Perovskite‐based time‐domain signal‐balancing LiDAR sensor with centimeter depth resolution

open access: yesInfoMat, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
In this study, we present a monolithic high‐speed perovskite‐based photodetector capable of directly sensing the time delay between two light pulses with a temporal resolution of at least 170 ps. This outstanding time resolution is achieved through a signal‐balancing detection scheme that effectively overcomes the limitations of conventional ...

Imaging of Atmospheric Dispersion Processes with Differential Absorption Lidar

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences
We consider the inverse problem of fitting atmospheric dispersion parameters based on time-resolved back-scattered differential absorption Lidar (DIAL) measurements. The obvious advantage of light-based remote sensing modalities is their extended spatial range which makes them less sensitive to strictly local perturbations/modelling errors or the ...

Defining Scales of Field Studies and Experiments to Assess Marine Cloud Brightening

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Solar radiation modification (SRM) is being discussed as a potential option for addressing climate risks while atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations are reduced to lower levels. However, understanding of the potential efficacy, impacts, benefits and harms of different SRM approaches remains limited.

Development of an advanced Two-Micron triple-pulse IPDA lidar for carbon dioxide and water vapor measurements

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
An advanced airborne triple-pulse 2-μm integrated path differential absorption (IPDA) lidar is under development at NASA Langley Research Center that targets both carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O) measurements simultaneously and independently ...
