Abstract:Profiles of aerosols and cloud layers have been investigated over a high-altitude urban atmosphere in the eastern Himalayas in India, for the first time, using a Raman LIDAR. The study was conducted post-monsoon season over Darjeeling (latitude 27°01′ N longitude 88°36′ E, 2200 masl), a tourist destination in north-eastern India. In addition to the aerosols and cloud characterization and atmospheric boundary layer detection, the profile of the water vapor mixing ratio has also been analyzed. Effects of atmosph… Show more
