A Methane Lidar for Greenhouse Gas Measurements

Atmospheric methane is the second most important greenhouse gas with 25 times the radiativeforcing of carbon dioxide. We will present results from an airborne campaign using a lidar at1.65m using optical parametric generation. OCIS codes: ((280.1910) DIAL, differential absorption lidar; (120.0280) Remote sensing and sensors; (010.1280) Atmospheric composition.
