Attenuated atmospheric backscatter profiles measured by the CO 2 Sounder lidar in the 2017 ASCENDS/ABoVE airborne campaign
A series of attenuated atmospheric backscatter profiles were measured at 1572 nm by the CO 2 Sounder lidar during the eight flights of the 2017 ASCENDS/ABoVE (Active Sensing of CO 2 Emission over Nights, Days, and Seasons, Arctic Boreal Vulnerability Experiment) airborne campaign. In addition to mea...
