The Laser Induced Fluorescence-Sulfur Dioxide (LIF-SO2) is an airborne optical sensor operated by NOAA to measure SO2 in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. It is based on the single-photon laser-induced fluorescence technique and uses a tunable diode laser at 1084.5 nm to excite SO2 at 216.9 nm. It detects SO2 at a sampling rate of 1 Hz, with a detection limit of 5 pptv and an accuracy of 10%.
