Abstract

A calibrated acoustic sounder developed by the Atmospheric Environment Service of Canada is compared to an in situ sensor measuring the acoustic backscatter cross-section directly, Some deficiencies in the calibration technique and discrepancies with the in situ sensor are analyzed. The vertical structure of the acoustic backscatter cross-section during various stages of a radiational inversion is examined in conjunction with supporting temperature, humidity and velocity data taken from a tethered balloon system.
