CEDAR:Sondrestrom Arctic Lidar Technology (ARCLITE) Facility

SRI国际公司将在格陵兰岛的Sondre Stromfjord建立一个永久性激光雷达设施，能够进行瑞利和共振散射测量。北极激光雷达技术（ARCLITE）设施将安装在Sondrestrom非相干散射雷达站，以便与现有和计划配置的高层大气仪器进行互补研究。ARCLITE设施将专注于钠D2共振后向散射测量，以提供高纬度钠层特征的信息，并专注于瑞利后向散射测量，以提供高纬度中间层/平流层区域结构的信息

SRI International will establish a permanent lidar facility at Sondre Stromfjord, Greenland, capable of performing Rayleigh and resonant scatter measurements. The Arctic lidar technology (ARCLITE) facility will be installed at the Sondrestrom incoherent-scatter radar site to allow complementary studies with collocated upper-atmospheric instrumentation, existing and planned. The ARCLITE facility will concentrate on measurements of sodium D2 resonance backscatter to provide information on the characteristics of the high-latitude sodium layer, and on Rayleigh backscatter measurements to provide information on the structure of the high-latitude mesosphere/stratosphere region.***//
