Abstract
A versatile mobile remote sensing system for multidisciplinary environmental monitoring tasks on the Chinese scene is described. The system includes a 20 Hz Nd:YAG laser-pumped dye laser, optical transmitting/receiving systems with a 30 cm and a 40 cm Newtonian telescope, and electronics, all integrated in a laboratory, installed on a Jiefang truck. Results from field experiments on atomic mercury DIAL mapping and remote laser-induced fluorescence and break-down spectroscopy are given.
Highlights
Environmental issues attract an ever increasing interest, and measures to improve the ambient living conditions are widely launched to reduce the impact of environmental pollution, not the least on the Chinese scene, where the situation is severe
Laser spectroscopy has proven as a powerful methodology for environmental studies, both in the laboratory and in remote-sensing applications
We here present a new and versatile mobile laboratory, which we have constructed at South China Normal University (SCNU) in Guangzhou
Summary
Environmental issues attract an ever increasing interest, and measures to improve the ambient living conditions are widely launched to reduce the impact of environmental pollution, not the least on the Chinese scene, where the situation is severe (see, e.g. [1]). Environmental issues attract an ever increasing interest, and measures to improve the ambient living conditions are widely launched to reduce the impact of environmental pollution, not the least on the Chinese scene, where the situation is severe Laser spectroscopy has proven as a powerful methodology for environmental studies, both in the laboratory and in remote-sensing applications. We here present a new and versatile mobile laboratory, which we have constructed at South China Normal University (SCNU) in Guangzhou. While specially adapted for laser radar applications, is allows a wide range of laboratory studies to conveniently be pursued out in the field
