Title
Initial validation and results of Geoscience Laser Altimeter System optical properties retrievals
Abstract
In this presentation, we will show results from intercomparison case studies of Cloud Physics Lidar under-flights of GLAS orbit tracks during the GLAS Validation Experiment in October 2003. Compared products include Rayleigh backscatter profiles, calibrated attenuated backscatter, layer identification, optical depth, extinction, and backscatter cross section. We will show examples of GLAS operational optical data products.
