Assimilating spaceborne lidar dust extinction can improve dust forecasts [PDF]
Atmospheric mineral dust has a rich tri-dimensional spatial and temporal structure that is poorly constrained in forecasts and analyses when only column-integrated aerosol optical depth (AOD) is assimilated.

Chlorophyll and POC in polar regions derived from spaceborne lidar
Polar regions have the most productive ecosystems in the global ocean but are vulnerable to global climate changes. Traditionally, the long-term changes occurred in an ecosystem are studied by using satellite-derived estimates of passive ocean color ...

The Nonlinear Effective Attenuation Coefficient of Spaceborne Oceanic Lidar Signal [PDF]
Multiple scattering is an inevitable effect in spaceborne oceanic lidar because of the large footprint size and the high optical density of seawater. The effective attenuation coefficient klidar in oceanic lidar equation, which indicates the influence of

A Semianalytic Monte Carlo Simulator for Spaceborne Oceanic Lidar: Framework and Preliminary Results
Spaceborne lidar (light detection and ranging) is a very promising tool for the optical properties of global atmosphere and ocean detection. Although some studies have shown spaceborne lidar’s potential in ocean application, there is no spaceborne lidar ...

Pointing Verification Method for Spaceborne Lidars [PDF]
High precision acquisition of atmospheric parameters from the air or space by means of lidar requires accurate knowledge of laser pointing. Discrepancies between the assumed and actual pointing can introduce large errors due to the Doppler effect or a wrongly assumed air pressure at ground level.
