Mesoscale horizontal divergence and vertical motion in the boundary layer are key ingredients in atmospheric and climate modeling. These quantities are very difficult to measure. This paper presents a technique for determining the divergence over a 10 km x 5 km area from lidar images depicting the spatial distribution of the naturally occurring atmospheric aerosols.
