However, the calibration constant is not valid for daytime measurements, as the instrument changes its sensitivity in order to protect the sensitive detectors from overload due to high background radiation. It is even further reduced in case of very low optically thick clouds due to the sudden peak ...

Atmospheric lidar
Atmospheric lidar is a class of instruments that uses laser light to study atmospheric properties from the ground up to the top of the atmosphere. Such instruments have been used to study, among other, atmospheric gases, aerosols, clouds, and temperature. Atmospheric lidars belong the more general class of Lidar instruments that use light to detect the distance of objects.
