Abstract
We have studied multiple regressions between the spectral aerosol extinction coefficient e, backscatter indicatrix gπ, and light-scattering coefficients βθ at angles of θ = 1–180°, which we used to select the optimal scattering angle for determining the extinction coefficient at the wavelengths 0.350, 0.532, and 1.060 µm. We have estimated the errors in determination of the values of e and gπ at the given wavelengths for different atmospheric situations with different meteorological parameters. We have shown that it is possible to use the spectral βθ values at a 33° angle to determine the reference values for e(λ) and gπ(λ) at λ = 0.350, 0.532, and 1.060 µm in laser detection and ranging (lidar) measurements, and we give examples of recovering the vertical profiles of e in a slightly turbid atmosphere from the results of simultaneous multiwavelength lidar and nephelometric measurements.
