AbstractBetween October 1991 and January 1992, The LAMP lidar took part in the LADIMAS campaign. The instrument profiled density and temperature structure of the middle and lower atmosphere, along with water vapor profiles of the lower troposphere. Measurements were taken from 70°N to 65°S aboard the German research vessel, RV Polarstern. Strong backscattered signals due to aerosols from the eruption of the Pinatubo volcano in the Philippines were observed between 20 and 33 km. These layers were detected at all measurement locations from Andeness, Norway to Antarctica. A characterization of the aerosol layers is made possible by the two-color lidar technique at wavelengths of 355 and 532 nm, and latitudinal mapping from aboard the RV Polarstern.
