Beschreibung:This monograph undertakes to present systematically the methods for solving inverse problems of lidar sensing of the atmosphere, with emphasis on lidar techniques that are based on the use of light scattering by aerosols. The theory of multi-frequency lidar sensing, as a new method for studying the microphysical and optical characteristics of aerosol formations, is also presented in detail. The possibilities of this theory are illustrated by the experimental results on microstructure analysis of tropospheric and low stratospheric aerosols obtained with ground-based two- and three-frequency lidars. The lidar facilities used in these experimental studies were constructed at the Institute of Atmospheric Optics S8 USSR Academy of Sciences. Some aspects of remote control of dispersed air pollution using lidar systems are also considered. A rigorous theory for inverting the data of polarization lidar measurements is discussed, along with its application to remote measurement of the complex index of refraction of aerosol substances and the microstructure parameters of background aerosols using double-ended lidar schemes. Solutions to such important problems as the separation of contributions due to Rayleigh­ molecular and Mie-aerosol light scattering into the total backscatter are obtained by using this theory. Lidar polarization measurements are shown to be useful in this case. The efficiency of the methods suggested here for interpreting the lidar polarization measurements is illustrated by experimental results on the investigation of the microphysical parameters of natural aerosols and artificial smokes using polarization nephelometers
