TODO - Geometrical and optical characteristics of cirrus clouds using Raman
lidar Polly(XT) measurements at different locations are presented. The
Polly(XT) has been participated in two long-term experimental campaigns,
one close to New Delhi in India and one at Elandsfontein in South
Africa, providing continuous measurements and covering a wide range of
cloud types. First results of cirrus cloud properties at different
latitudes, as well as their temporal distributions are presented in this
study. An automatic cirrus clouds detection algorithm is applied based
on the wavelet covariance transform. The measurements at New Delhi
performed from March 2008 to February 2009, while at Elandsfontein
measurements were performed from December 2009 to January 2011.
