FIELD TESTING OF MOBILE LIDAR FOR OZONE SENSING

The results of field tests of a mobile lidar for ozone sensing are presented. The lidar operates on the basis of the differential absorption and scattering method at wavelengths of 299/341 nm and allows receiving lidar signals on a route up to ~18 km long. The lidar was installed on an isothermal van with an autonomous power supply system. Field tests were conducted on a horizontal route on the territory of the V.E. Zuev Institute of Atmospheric Optics. An example of field measurements and the result of lidar sensing are presented.
