NOAA/CMDL/Mauna Loa Observatory AIRS Validation • Water Vapor Profiles by Raman Lidar (night) and radiosondes • Temperature Profiles by Lidar (night) and radiosondes • Ozone Profiles by Ozonesondes • Total Ozone by Dobson Spectrophotometer (day)
NOAA/Mauna Loa Observatory
MLO Aerosol/Temperature/Water Vapor Lidar Laser: Nd:YAG (532 nm, 1064 nm, 20 Watts each) Mirrors: 61 cm (532), 61 cm (1064), 74 cm (607 and 660)

Lidar Calibration and Validation • Five frost-point hygrometers will be flown simultaneous with lidar measurement for calibration of the lidar • At least 14 measurements of water vapor and temperature made during overpasses each year for validation
Radiosonde and Ozonesonde validations • Seven radiosondes from the observatory for humidity and temperature each year • Seven launches of ozonesondes during daytime overpasses for humidity, temperature and ozone each year • The total daytime column ozone will be measured by Dobson spectrophotometer during daytime overpasses
