Lidar returns from the upper atmosphere of Kamchatka for 2008 to 2014 observations

Abstract The correlation of lidar returns at a wavelength of 532 nm at altitudes of 150 to 300 km is investigated with the parameters of the night ionospheric F2 layer. Moreover, the role of excited ions of the nitrogen atoms in the formation of lidar signals is discussed.
