An intensive observation period (IOP) for simultaneous measurements of ABLH by using radio soundings and remote sensing techniques is planned at CNR-IMAA Atmospheric Observatory (CIAO) starting from April 2024. During the IOP all the CIAO sensors relevant for the study of the ABLH will be operative 24 hours a day and seven days a week. At least 6 radiosoundings per day will be performed, adopting GRUAN (GCOS Reference Upper Air Network) procedures and algorithms. This experimental set-up will provide an optimal dataset for the characterization of ABLH using different techniques and sensors. Additionally, the measurement campaign will provide the opportunity to optimize MIPA (Morphological Image Processing Approach) algorithm for the retrieval of ABLH from lidar data.
