GOAMAZON-LIDAR

Observations and Modeling of the Green Ocean Amazon: LIDAR Comparison

5 October 2014 - 10 October 2014

Lead Scientist: Henrique Barbosa

Observatory: AMF (ARM Mobile Facility 1) - MAO

Three lidar systems were operated simultaneously at different experimental sites, and an instrument comparison campaign was carried out where the mobile lidar system from Nuclear and Energy Research Institute -USP was brought from site T2 to the other sites (T3-Manacapuru and then Toe-Embrapa). The data collected by the mobile lidar system at the DOE-ARM site (T3-Manacapuru) and Toe-Embrapa were used for side-by-side comparison of the systems running at these sites.
