Innovative aerosol hygroscopic growth study from Mie–Raman–fluorescence lidar and microwave radiometer synergy [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques
This study focuses on the characterization of aerosol hygroscopicity using remote sensing techniques. We employ a Mie–Raman–fluorescence lidar (Lille Lidar for Atmospheric Study, LILAS), developed at the ATOLL platform, Laboratoire d'Optique ...

Measuring Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) and Aerosol Profiles Simultaneously with a Camera Lidar

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
CLidar or camera lidar is a simple, inexpensive technique to measure nighttime tropospheric aerosol profiles. Stars in the raw data images used in the CLidar analysis can also be used to calculate aerosol optical depth simultaneously.

Oxygen isotope geochemistry of the second HSDP core [PDF]

, 2003
Oxygen isotope ratios were measured in olivine phenocrysts (~1 mm diameter), olivine microphenocrysts (generally ~100–200 µm diameter), glass, and/or matrix from 89 samples collected from depths down to 3079.7 m in the second, and main, HSDP core (HSDP-2)

Joint Power Splitting and Secure Beamforming Design in the Wireless-powered Untrusted Relay Networks

, 2015
In this work, we maximize the secrecy rate of the wireless-powered untrusted relay network by jointly designing power splitting (PS) ratio and relay beamforming with the proposed global optimal algorithm (GOA) and local optimal algorithm (LOA). Different
