Improved cloud-phase determination of low-level liquid and mixed-phase clouds by enhanced polarimetric lidar [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2018
The unambiguous retrieval of cloud phase from polarimetric lidar observations is dependent on the assumption that only cloud scattering processes affect polarization measurements.

Time Coding-Based Single-Photon-Counting Lidar for Obtaining Spatial Location

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
This paper proposes a single-photon-counting lidar based on time coding that can obtain the target’s spatial location and measure the distance and azimuth angle in real time without needing a scanning device.

Leaf area index retrieval with ICESat-2 photon counting LiDAR

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021
This is the first study to inverse leaf area index (LAI) with photon counting LiDAR (i.e., Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2/Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System, ICESat-2/ATLAS). A new framework composed of three major steps was applied:
