Abstract

The incidence of sharp changes in back scatter (stratification) in the atmosphere have been analysed from a large data set of measurements made over the Atlantic with an air-borne CO2 lidar. These results have been combined with the pulse shapes of typical CO2 lasers to investigate the impact on future space-borne wind lidars. It is shown that typically up to 11% of such measurements would be corrupted with incorrect height assignments.
