Airborne Water Vapor Differential Absorption Lidar (DIAL) measurements in the Tropics

Presented were results from the NARVAL-S campaign across the subtropical Atlantic and near Barbados, using the DLR WALES lidar onboard the new German HALO research aircraft. In the subtropical lower troposphere we have encountered scattered clouds with tops at two distinct levels, embedded in a laye...
