Goals
The research goals of this Raman Lidar program are to:
(1) Investigate, understand and model the physical and chemical processes important in evolution of air pollution events,
(2) Identify the local and transport sources that contribute to increased concentrations of ozone and PM2.5,
(3) Connect the sources of air pollution with population exposure and health effects,
(4) Develop and test models which fully predict the distribution of air pollutants to predict and test regulatory measures, and
(5) Develop and improve the measuring techniques needed for process monitoring.
Keywords: Raman lidar, troposphere, aerosol characterization, atmospheric chemistry, atmospheric dynamics
