The Water vapor and Aerosol LIdar (WALI) is a mobile ground-based Raman lidar developed at the Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l’Environnement (LSCE). It measures lidar backscatter to determine aerosol optical properties and water vapor mixing ratio profiles. WALI operates at the 354.7 nm wavelength and has a temporal sampling of about 1 minute. It has a vertical resolution of about 30 meters and a field of field of view of about 2.3 mrad.
