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

Figure 8

Spatial relationship between ground-based Lidar station and CALIOP footprints during CALIOP overpass. The red triangle represents the position of Lille Lidar station, the red circle represents the footprints of CALIOP, the black circle represents the position of CALIOP footprint at the specified spatial distance (e.g., 20 km and 50 km), and the blue rectangle represents 30 km window size of horizontally running mean for the black circle.
