Continuous 1064/532 nm Lidar Measurements (CORALNet-UBC) in Vancouver, British Columbia: Selected Results from a Year of Operation

Abstract: CORALNet-UBC was installed in April 2008 as a "proof of concept" and the first facility in a proposed cross-Canada network of similar lidars. Despite its location on the wet West Coast of Canada, data recovery ranged from a low of 45% of the total time in December, when heavy snowfall interrupted operations, to a high of 90% in July. The facility has been a spectacular success in terms of its operational characteristics (as measured by data recovery), the range of phenomena observed and the research that it ha… Show more

“…With the transit from development-stage to commercially-available instruments, the number of reports on lidar applications in air pollution and ABL problems has increased steadily in the last few years. They have been variously applied to describe ABL dynamics and estimate its height (Cohn and Angevine, 2000;Martucci et al, 2007;De Wekker and Mayor, 2009;McKendry et al, 2011), as well as to characterize aerosols in the ABL and the lower troposphere (Papayannis et al, 2007;McKendry et al, 2009;Ponczkowsca et al, 2009). One particular class of lidar deserves special mention.…”
