Observation of polar stratospheric clouds with the ABLE LIDAR during the APE-POLECAT flight of January 9, 1997
Observations of Polar Stratospheric Clouds (PSCs) were carried out with an airborne lidar on the stratospheric M55 Geophysica aircraft during a flight from Rovaniemi, Finland, on 9 January, 1997. The clouds were observed at the zenith, downwind from the Norwegian Alps: three PSCs, of somewhat differ...
