Improving Daytime Planetary Boundary Layer Height Determination from CALIOP: Validation Based on Ground-Based Lidar Station

Figure 10

Under clear sky conditions, (a) illustrates the comparison of PBLH at the points of the nearest spatial and temporal coincidence between CALIOP footprints and CE370 Lidar site. (b) demonstrates the averaged AOD and Ångström exponent derived from the Sun Photometer within half an hour during CALIOP overpass.
