Title
Observations of aerosols using the Micro-Pulse Lidar NETwork (MPLNET)
Abstract
MPLNET is a network of lidar systems that provide long term observations of aerosol and cloud properties at multiple sites around the globe. Each site in the network uses an elastic-scattering lidar co-located with a sunphotometer to provide data products of aerosol optical and physical properties. Expansion of the network is based on partnering with research groups interested in joining MPLNET. Results have contributed to a variety of studies including aerosol transport processes and satellite calibration and validation efforts
