Profiling of aerosol, water vapor and temperature in the boundary layer during TEAMx pre campaign 2022 and Swabian MOSES 2023 with a Raman-lidar at a high temporal resolution

Key Points

• To evaluate the performance of a newly developed Raman lidar in measuring atmospheric conditions and resolving turbulent processes.
• Conducted measurements during summer campaigns in Innsbruck and Villingen-Schwenningen.
• Utilized a Raman lidar to profile aerosols, water vapor, and temperature at high temporal resolution.
• Combined lidar measurements with a vertical wind profiler for enhanced data analysis.
• The lidar effectively resolved turbulent processes under varying weather conditions.
• Vertical energy fluxes were analyzed, demonstrating the instrument's capability for detailed atmospheric profiling.
• Results indicated the potential for improved understanding of boundary layer dynamics.
