Lidar Techniques and Measurements

The Remote Sensing and Space Science group at the U of I has developed an upper atmospheric observatory on Cerro Pachon, beginning operation in Sep, 2009. Passive instrumentation includes mesospheric airglow allsky imagers of OH (including 16 micron), airglow photometers, a meteor radar, and an Na resonance lidar.
