Depolarization Measurements with the High Spectral Resolution LidarThis paper describes modifications to the University of Wisconsin High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL) which permit very precise depolarization measurements in addition to optical depth, backscatter cross section, and extinction cross section measurements. Because HSRL separates the lidar return into aerosol and molecular contributions, they can be measured separately.
