ABSTRACT
This program was conducted in support of the Los Angeles Re-
active Pollutant Program (LARPP) jointly planned by the En-
vironmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Coordinating Re-
search Council (CRC). The objective of this program was to
observe the temporal and spatial variations of the atmospheric
mixing layer by using a mobile Lidar system in the Los Angeles
Basin in conjunction with the LARPP experiment. The observa-
tions along with the results of the comparison analysis in-
volving meteorological and air quality data will be used for
the evaluation of air quality simulation models. These field
data are essential for the development of realistic and accu-
rate air quality simulation models used in analyzing pollution
control strategies.
The effectiveness of using the mobile Lidar system for observ-
ing the temporal and spatial variations of the atmospheric
mixing layer has been demonstrated. It has also been demon-
strated that the Lidar system is a cost-effective means of
gathering such field data. Operational readiness of the mo-
bile Lidar system proved to be quite high throughout the en-
tire LARPP program period. Intensive teamwork rendered equip-
ment breakdowns to be of minimal impact on total system readi-
ness and performance.
Significant correlation was found by comparison of Lidar data
to meteorological observations made. Temperature and moisture
profiles compared well with Lidar information. The analysis
made in comparing the observed Lidar data with the meteorolog-
ical data gathered by the helicopter under the LARPP program
showed good correlation.
More field data are needed to better establish the temporal
and spatial variation of the mixing layer. The knowledge of
the temporal and spatial variation of the mixing layer could
be greatly extended by utilizing multiple Lidar systems in
stationary and/or mobile modes of operation. This will fur-
ther benefit the development of more realistic simulation mod-
els.
This report was submitted in fulfillment of Contract Number
68-02-1305 by System Innovation and Development Corporation
under the sponsorship of the Environmental Protection Agency.
Work was completed as of May 1975.

SECTION I
CONCLUSIONS
This project entailed the operational use of a developed
Lidar and electronic technology toward the solution of a re- ,
mote sampling problem involving time and distance constraints.
The task of combining electro-optical and electronic proces-
sing equipment, and gas powered generators, for mobile opera-
tion in a van, was not accomplished without difficulty even
though all the equipment had existed as off-the-shelf com-
ponents. The typical systems integration problems such as
ground loops, voltage compatability and spurious transients
quickly appeared but were never a major cause of total system
failure. Operational readiness of the mobile Lidar system
proved to be quite high throughout the entire LARPP program
period. The major cause of any breakdowns were found to be
discrete component failure within the laser power supply and
overload, capacity of the water cooling unit. Teamwork be-
tween contractor and subsystem supplier rendered these break-
downs to be of minimal impact on total system readiness and
performance. Daily inspection of optical alignment and bore-
sight revealed very minor disturbances caused by road shock
and vibration.
A comparison of all Lidar data to surface and rawin observa-
tions made during the LARPP period, revealed rather signifi-
cant trends and correlation. Temperature and moisture
profiles from the radiosondes proved to be of the greatest
aid for initializing the altitudes of the inversion and
stratus before beginning each day's operation. Identifica-
tion was facilitated by using the midday release, particularly
that data from the LAX office. It was noted that for Lidar
operation within a boundary of approximately 15 miles from
the coast line, the best correlation always existed using the
LAX data. Early morning temperature profiles obtained at the
El Monte station usually deviated from those obtained at the
launch site to render those data points of less significance
in the overall comparison effort.
Since the basic program objectives were to provide contin-
uous readings of mixing layer depth, attempts were made for
the Lidar van to follow wind trajectories and monitor the
levels en route. The spatial variability of the temperature
and moisture profiles, and hence the Lidar returns, were
somewhat difficult to interpret especially since these para-
meters can be strongly modified by local geographical
-------
features. This was indicated during the run on 10/5/73
when observations were made traveling in an easterly direc-
tion toward the San Gabriel Mountains. In this report the
height is referenced to the altitude above ground level
(a.g.l.).
Several observations, such as those on 10/14/73 and
10/24/73, revealed only minor, if any meaningful, compari=-
sons to radiosonde reports, again possibly due to unique
temporal or spatial variability. Tracing the air mass
movements at a fixed location can sometimes alleviate this
ambiguity as one usually starts using some baseline mea-
surement and collects a data history from that time onward.
Cases exist involving small vertical temperature gradients
up to altitudes of several thousand feet. The Lidar re-
turns for these days again show negligible correlation to
radiosonde profiles due to almost homogeneous mixing of the
aerosols within this boundary.
Noted also in several of the daily observations was the
variability of signal return that occurred with very slight
changes in the ambient humidity. For water concentrations
above 10% humidity, it was reported that an overall change
in particulate size, and hence optical scattering, can also
occur. This effect can be seen during a timed sequence of
firings when the wind direction shifted and moisture con-
tent changed.
-------
SECTION II .
RECOMMENDATIONS
The overall effectiveness of a basic Lidar system to monitor
and record the dynamic variations of the atmospheric struc-
ture has been demonstrated. The limitations imposed by the
technique used in the LARPP program may be in part due to the
wide area coverage required for operation of a single instru-
ment. Because of the wide degree of spatial variability ex-
hibited in the data, it is believed that a more systematic,
series of observations could be used to better delineate the
characteristics of the advected air masses. This might be
accomplished by either a network of three mobile Lidar sys-r
tems or a single unit operating along a fixed route.
At selected locations in the northwestern, southeastern and
eastern sectors within the.L.A. basin, mobile Lidars can be
operated to provide a network of closely coordinated observa-
tions. The mobile Lidars could provide sufficient amount of
data to completely describe the temporal and spatial varia-
tions of the mixing layer height over the entire L.A. basin.
A second method, although not as efficient in resolution
qualities, would be using a single mobile system to record
cross section variations along a boundary flow. This task
would require the designation of a vehicle route that would
be representative of the flow regime or the typical cross
section through the L.A. basin.
The basic capabilities of the Lidar for obtaining a detailed
atmospheric survey within a fixed volume would be the primary
asset in this example.
-------
SECTION III
LARPP PROGRAM AND THE MOBILE LIDAR OPERATION
The Los Angeles Reactive Pollutant Program (LARPP) operation
was jointly sponsored by the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) and Coordinating Research Council (CRC) for the specif-
ic purpose of obtaining a complete data package suitable for
modeling the transport, diffusion and chemical reactions
associated with air pollutants subject to photo-chemical
processes. As a result of earlier programs in the Los Ange-
les basin, LARPP was conceived in 1971 as a Lagrangian type
operation, i.e., aerometric measurements would be made with-
in a moving air parcel as it traversed the Los Angeles basin.
As nearly as possible data were to be taken in real time.
While results were to have general applicability, the Los
Angeles basin was selected for the test area for a number of
reasons: concentrations of photo-chemical pollutant and
precursors are relatively high on a continuous basis; mobile
and fixed sources are documented; there are extensive surface
air sampling networks in operation; and the Air Resources
Board facilities are available including a mobile van.
Several groups participated including: EPA (helicopter in-
struments and ground level radiation measurements); NOAA
(tetroon operations and radar tracking); ARB (mobile van and
laboratory support for GC analysis of bag samples); General
Research Corporation (data management); System Innovation and
Development Corporation (Lidar); and Metronics Associates,
Inc. (tracer and overall operation control). Approximately
sixty people were involved in the field operations.
Field work was begun early in September 1973 and completed in
mid-November. To achieve the program objective, operations
were started as early in the day as possible from a site hav-
ing a significant pollutant source and a forecast trajectory
as long as possible. These conditions were not always com-
patible. A total of five sites were used: two were used
most frequently (downtown Los Angeles - 17 tests; Downey -
12 tests).
In outline, a typical operation proceeded as follows. Three
tetroons were launched simultaneously from a single location
ballasted to fly below the inversion base. The position of
each was established by radar at one-minute intervals and
plotted at the Operation Center (OC). As soon as the cen-
troid of the tetroon pattern was established, FP tracer was
4
-------
released by helicopter in a one-half mile square pattern
around the centroid approximately midway between the ground
and inversion base. After completion of the fifteen-minute
tracer release the first of two instrumented Bell 212 heli-
copters began a series of seven-minute constant altitude
rectangular flight patterns around the centroid starting near
the inversion base. A second radar continuously tracked the
aircraft and reported positions to the OC. Four flight levels
were used, the lowest 200 feet above ground. Normally, the
aircraft would descend, ascend and descend a second time
through each level before returning to base. The second air-
craft began at the top level when the first aircraft com-
pleted its final flight pattern at the lowest level. Sub-
ject to airway control problems, it was possible to maintain
the flight pattern close to the tetroon centroid. On occa-
sion both aircraft were flown in separate flight patterns
simultaneously. The ARE van was directed along the centroid
path by OC; data were taken continuously both en route and at
fixed locations along the path. Tracking time for each oper-
ation varied from two to eight hours.
Aircraft and van measurements included: 0^, NO, NO (con-
currently), CHL, non-methane hydrocarbon, CO, tracer concen-
tration and air temperature. Bag samples for GC analysis
were taken from all vehicles. In addition, the aircraft mea-
sured dew point and aerosol light scattering. All data were
recorded on magnetic tape in a 6-7 second cycle time. Backup
strip charts were also used.
Lidar measurements from a mobile van were made along the pro-
jected track. The movement of the mobile Lidar van was di-
rected by the central operation center through the two-way
radio communication system for each mission day. The mobile
Lidar started the operation at the launch site prior to
launching of the tetroon. Then under direction of OC the mo-
bile Lidar van normally followed the tetroon movement. In
all the operations, the Lidar van was separated by a few
miles from the helicopter's operation. The mobile Lidar sys-
tem operated in both stationary and mobile modes, depending
on the instruction received from OC.

SECTION IV
DESCRIPTION OF MOBILE LIDAR SYSTEM
The principal utility of a Lidar in any meteorological or
air pollution studies is its ability to provide a remote
detection capability. Although its uses may vary somewhat,
the basic Lidar configuration of monostatic laser trans-
mitter and receiver has remained unchanged throughout many
years of research investigations. The compact arrangement
of optics lends itself well to portable field operation,
being independent of any external sources of electromagnetic
radiation. The configuration of Lidar components chosen for
use by SI&D in its mobile instrumentation van are depicted
in Figure 1. The Lidar unit is situated on a two-axis, hand-
cranked platform within the van to allow its use in all
angles between the horizontal and vertical firing position.
All electronic controls, firing indicators and photographic
storage are conveniently situated to allow ease of operator
adjustments even during mobile operation.
The characteristics of the basic laser transmitter and re-
ceiver are described in Chart 1. The ruby laser transmitter
is a standard off-the-shelf unit. Its rugged mechanical
design and resonator stability is particularly well suited
to withstand the rigorous vibration environment encountered
during mobile operation. The laser and power supply elec-
tronics are designed for continuous duty operation as found
in production line welding and metal working applications.
The laser rod and lamps are totally submerged in water during
operation. Cooling water is provided by a 2000 BTU refriger-
ated system that can maintain laser head temperature within
1°F even when ambient conditions approach 100°F.
Each pulse of Q-switched energy is transmitted as a quasi-
collimated beam lasting approximately 20 nanoseconds. The
scattering interaction with the atmosphere from each out-
going pulse produces a signature that is collected by the
receiver optics.
The Lidar receiver consists of an 8-inch Cassegrain tele-
scope and photomultiplier detector. A schematic diagram of
this assembly is shown in Figure 2. The optic axis of the
receiver is located approximately 11 inches from that of the
laser. The optical field of view is nominally adjustable
between 0.2 milliradians and 10 milliradians. For all opera-
tions conducted during the observational period, however, the

unit was kept at 10 milliradians. A spectral bandpass filter
of 50 Angstroms is used in the receiver to minimize back-
ground sky illuminance. A parallex adjustment between the
two units allows one to vary the angle of intersection be-
tween optic axis, and thus maximize the volume of inter-
action within the atmosphere. A removable prism viewfinder
within the receiver allows visual sighting along the same
optical axis of the photomultiplier detector. The receiver
field of view can be manually adjusted to coincide with the
center of the laser pulse cross section by visually sighting
through the optics to some distant target and then firing
the laser. A mechanical locking fixture clamps both units
rigidly when boresight has been established.
The transmitter and receiver units are solidly mounted to a
two-axis platform which is hand adjustable in azimuth over
360° and elevation from 0 to 90°. Normally the Lidar is set
up to operate in the vertical position by firing through a
hole in the roof of the instrument van.
Each Lidar pulse transmitted must also be measured for its
energy content and subsequently recorded to provide data
normalization. Pulse energy monitoring is accomplished with
an EG&G lite mike detector head mounted internal to the laser
transmitter. A small fraction of the oscillator energy,
leaked through the rear resonator element, is detected and a
waveform generated that is proportional to the transmitted
pulse energy. A sample-and-hold circuit then processes each
pulse for insertion into the data loading format for record-
ing on magnetic tape.
The Biomation 610B waveform digitizer, electronic interface
module and Kennedy 1500 recorder altogether comprise the
elements of the recording system.
Other equipment contained within the van include a Tektronix
546 oscilloscope for real time monitoring of each backscat-
tered pulse. A Polaroid camera attachment is used to provide
hard copies of selected signal returns that are presented on
the oscilloscope.
Electrical power for the mobile instrumentation van is pro-
vided by a 15 kw gasoline generator towed behind the van.

SECTION V
INSTRUMENTATION AND DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM
Early field investigations using the Lidar were somewhat
limited in data recording aspects due to the requirement for
photographing each backscatter pulse as it appears on the
display oscilloscope. Current advances in data recording,
processing and display have made the Lidar system an effec-
tive means of acquiring atmospheric data.
Any type of operational data gathering has to be cost-effec-
tive from the standpoint of time and man-hours spent to both
collect and interpret the data. Today's electronic technol-
ogy, with high speed analog to digital encoders, has made it
possible for real time processing of each Lidar pulse as it
is received, and storing the product on conventional magnetic
tape. Once in this format, Lidar data can be analyzed in the
feaae manner as is done using other meteorological sensors.
The basic signal processor used with the Lidar is the Bioma-
tion Model 610B transient digitizer. Each backscatter pulse
detected by the photomultiplier results in an analog output
voltage that is sent to the transient digitizer for tempor-
ary storage. Linear amplifiers or signal conditioners are
not used. The Model 610B converts the analog signal at a
10 MHz rate, into 256, 6-bit words using a shift register
memory to capture and hold the digital equivalent of the in-
put. When triggered to read out the stored information, the
result is a smoothed function with data points at 0.1 micro-
second intervals. Information stored in the 61OB is recircu-
lated in the memory circuits until updated by another input
pulse. This allows time for viewing each processed pulse on
an oscilloscope or strip chart recorder.
Permanent storage for each backscatter return is accomplished
using a Kennedy Model 1500 incremental magnetic tape record-
er. An interface, or buffer unit, between recorder and the
transient digitizer is necessary for slowing the data trans-
fer rate.
The interface module also controls the starting and stopping
of the recorder. Upon receipt of a trigger command from the
610B, the interface module synchronously controls the readout
of the 256 data words plus six identifier words into the mag-
netic tape recorder. An internal command from the 61OB
designates when readout from the memory is complete allowing
11
-------
the interface module to turn off the recorder. A small tape
gap of approximately \ inch is automatically placed between
each recorded segment.
The major electronic subassemblies of the Lidar and data
recording system are illustrated in the block diagram shown
in Figure 3.

Along with each processed Lidar signal, there must be an
accompanying identifying file number for systematically
logging each set of data onto the tape. This is accomplished
with a set of ten manually programmed control switches also
connected to the interface module. Information as to day,
time, position and operation number are read into the tape as
each variable changes.
Preceding the readout position of the 10-digit file word is
the digitized portion of the pulse energy from the laser.
The design of the interface and control switches allows for
the eventual insertion of a digital time clock. Presently,
the day, hour, and operation number are manually set using
12
-------
the thumbwheel switches.
An example of the data format for the recorded information
is shown in Figure 4. This information is serially placed
on magnetic tape beginning with the time interval marked,
and continuing until all 272 words have been transferred.
The 272 words constitute the entire record length.

The transferral into mag tape storage begins with the most

seven recording tracks running at the conventional 1600
bytes/inch. An end of file or record gap is automatically
inserted between each sequence of 272 words.

Output from PMT enters the shift registers of the 610B;

module is triggered to begin readout cycle; recorder is
turned on.

from the 61OB memory.

plete" signal is passed to the interface module; record-
er is turned off.
6. Processed pulse information continues to recirculate in
610B shift registers until updated — signal is trans-
ferred to oscilloscope for monitoring.

SECTION VI
LIDAR DATA READOUT AND PROCESSING
One day of successful operation for the LARPP program will
result in the storage of from 500 to 800 Lidar pulses on
one reel of magnetic tape. Individually reviewing each
returned backscatter pulse is possible by unpacking the mag-
netic tape using the format in Figure 4. This can be accom-
plished at any data processing facility using IBM compatible
tape readout.
A generalized description of a recorded Lidar pulse might
appear as in Figure 5 after processing by the 610B and trans-
ferral from the tape storage.
Time or slant range is read along the x-axis in increments
of 15 meters corresponding to each data point. This is the
shortest sampling interval (0.1 microsecond) allowed by the
610B and represents the limiting spatial resolution. The
intensity along the y-axis is measured in arbitrary units.
The measurement of range to a discontinuity or layer is de-
termined from the one-way time interval between the time of
pulse transmission and receipt of an echo from the layer.
The time of pulse transmission is visually identified from
the data, as in Figure 5, as the point where the signal is
deflected from the horizontal.
The mobile Lidar was operated principally at 45 degrees ele-
vation from 5 Oct. to 11 Nov. Data recorded during this
time interval was later processed with a .707 factor to
account for the elevation angle when determining vertical
height to a layer. The recorded data are also annotated to
indicate when 45 or 90jdegrees is used.
It should be noted that depression angles below 90 degrees
afford the opportunity of looking through a greater thick-
ness of haze or inversion layers. In cases where the bound-
ary region is quite thin, the more scattering that occurs
allows the discontinuity to be easily identified.
An elevated moisture layer associated with a stratus or
marine layer inversion!is quite common over the California
coastal areas. The existence of this condition can be recog-
nized in the raw data printout from the characteristic scat-
tering increase associated with the moisture particulates.
The signal level from just above this layer is usually at a
lower magnitude from the case where no attenuation is present.

-------
Profiles such as that shown in Figure 5 are related to tem-
perature or moisture data, with variation in turbidity
corresponding to thermal inversion. Lidar data obtained
during the LARPP program, shown in the next section, are
also compared in this way.
NUMERICAL DATA SUMMARY
The primary data tape, as previously described, contains the
digitized analog signals direct from the Lidar receiver,
unprocessed with regard to inversion heights, cloud decks,
or mixing layer depth. Signals recorded are not normalized
for power fluctation and contain the usual 1/R^ dependence.
A second processed tape has been prepared which provides a
numerical interpretation for each of these features in terms
of altitudes of significant layers and approximate mixing
depth.
The criteria used in identifying the echo anomalies can be
quite complicated, often requiring the computation of extinc-
tion values along the entire path. This is especially true
if only automatic data processing methods are used in the
identification process. What is being attempted in the pro-
cessed tape is a classification of the echo anomaly into
mixing layer height or significant levels based on a back-
scatter slope evaluation.
A difference in air mass, as encountered near an inversion
top, would be represented as a change in the rate of signal
extinction given by dP/dR. A significant increase or de-
crease in dP/dR is indicative of the transition between dif-
ferent air masses. Consequently, the rate of change in the
slope dP/dR, or (d/dR) [(dP)/(dR)] will vary from ( + ) to (-)
when encountering this discontinuity in air mass. The mixing
height is established in this instance when
(d/dR) [(dP)/(dR)] changes from ( + ) to (-) when analyzed over
three or more data points. A change in slope (dP)/(dR) from
negative (-) to positive (+) is representative of an aerosol
or moisture layer, but these are termed "significant levels"
as they are usually found at or below the air mass discon-
tinuity.
A scattering medium having a high attenuation, such as char-
acterized by a fog or haze, is manifested in the Lidar return
as having a rapid signal falloff within the near field region
(50 to 300 meters). As the laser pulse penetrates through
this region of turbidity into a clear drier region above, the
backscatter slope changes in magnitude until finally
17
-------
diminished by the 1/R2 factor. This would be classified as
the upper mixing layer boundary unless a second slope anomaly
is found at a higher altitude. The numerical routine for
analyzing the backscatter profiles uses a least square fit
for smoothing the data points and computes a dP/dR over each
15 meter range increment. A nearly constant slope is expect-
ed for the 50 to 300 meter near-field range, with any depar-
tures being recorded as a significant level. Reversals in
sign, from either positive or negative, indicate the presence
of a discontinuity or more commonly a cloud or moisture lay-
er. These can also be separately identified but are here
classified as a significant level. In most all cases exam-
ined, the mixing layer has been shown to be associated with
the region below the temperature inversion base but may some-
times extend upward into the inversion when the temperature
gradient is weak.
All raw data tapes were examined using the numerical analysis
methods and recorded in tabular form. The output format for
these tapes appear as in Figure 6.
Organization is accomplished using operation number and date
as the identifying code.
RANGE NORMALIZED SIGNAL RETURNS
The processed data summary contained in the initial output
tapes may be considered a generalized result based on the
morphology of typical Lidar backscatter returns. The quali-
tative aspects of each backscatter signature are used in
identifying the nature and altitude of inversion bases,
moisture layers, stratus and fog layers. A second iteration
of the basic data, involving a numerical analysis, is needed
to remove the influences of range dependence.
Removing the influence of power fluctuations and daily ex-
tinction variances is done through a normalization procedure,
Utilized in this processing is a computer subroutine for gen-
erating a five-degree polynomial to fit the Lidar raw data.
This subroutine is one locally available and known as BMD05R
in many of the Fortran libraries. It essentially computes
successive degrees of polynomial regression (from first de-
gree to ktn degree, 1 < k < 10) for a set of input data con-
sisting of values of one independent and one dependent vari-
able. Optimal computations and output are a table of re-
siduals, a plot of the given values and a superimposed plot
of the values predicted by the regression equation.

-------
The Lidar data shown in Figure 5 before processing is re-
peated in Figure 7 following the normalization procedure.
The "residual" contains information on extinction or back-
scatter changes separate from the usual effects of beam
divergence within the near field region. Sorie degree of
graininess appears which unfortunately is due to the temporal
resolution qualities of the transient digitizer. Further
smoothing of the residual plot is possible before proceeding
to remove the 1/R2 function. The smoothed residual can also
be incorporated in a three-dimensional plot of a sequence of
daily observations that would provide a visual recognition
of the time-dependent nature of the meteorological features.
The backscatter signals returned to the PMT detector are
dependent in magnitude on the range at which the signal echoes
originate away from the receiver. This is the usual 1/R2
relationship inherent in radar signal processing. The signal
magnitude from two identical targets will appear different in
the data according to their respective range from the receiv-
er.
The preferred method for providing signal conditioning is
similar to that used in radar technology, whereby a pre-
amplifier stage, following the detector, introduces a pro-
grammable range selectable gain. Without having these hard-
ware components available at the onset of the LARPP project,
it was decided to employ software processing following all
data collection. Essentially, a normalization process would
be applied to the data that is derived from the physical
parameters in the Lidar range equation.

SECTION VII
DISCUSSION OF THE OBSERVED LIDAR DATA
MOBILE LIDAR MISSION DAY - 10/5/73
The humidity trace on the early morning (0532 PDT) radio-
sonde release data clearly showed the upper boundary of a
low level stratus layer to be approximately 357 meters.
Ground haze and fog also persisted throughout the coastal
areas of the Los Angeles basin until late afternoon. Coin-
cident with the altitude of the stratus tops was a tempera-
ture inversion approximately 357 meters above the ground
level. This inversion base was observed to move up to 638
meters later in the day as indicated by the 1210 PDT radio-
sonde release.
Lidar returns taken from the Downey release site between
0730 and 1155 also showed the predominant stratus base be-
ginning at approximately 126 to 145 meters during the early
morning. Overall weather conditions persisted but occasion-
al breaks in the stratus deck allowed Lidar signal penetra-
tion sufficiently well to define the upper surface. The
upper surface altitude varied between 300 and 500 meters
from 0730 to 1100 which corresponded extremely well with the
humidity gradient recorded with the radiosonde. The Lidar
signal attenuation usually encountered during days of fog
and stratus, significantly reduces the signal intensity from
any levels beyond the stratus top. Under certain circum-
stances a very dense fog or stratus will limit the laser ^
beam penetration to several hundred feet within the medium.
This was not the case for October 5, however, as the charac-
teristic backscatter echoes were correlated to the uppermost
boundary.
The reported rise in the inversion base was noted from the
Lidar echoes returned from the tops of the thick moisture
layers near 525 meters at 1200 PDT. Proceeding with the
Lidar van to the northeast later in the day, the levels were
found to decrease somewhat.
All the supportive synoptic and meteorological data for each
of the mission days are presented in the Appendixes A through
F. The radiosonde data and the weather information in the
Los Angeles basin were obtained from the Air Pollution Con-
trol District of Los Angeles County and the U.S. Weather

MISSION DAY - 10/10/73
Lidar returns taken in the early morning near Downey indi-
cated the presence of moisture-laden particulates aloft
extending to about 610 meters altitude at 0820 PDT. The
variability in height of the backscatter levels in the Lidar
data are possibly indicative of a weak temperature gradient
existing from a ground-based inversion.
Radiosonde data from 0542 PDT showed an inversion top at
approximately 598 meters along with a sharp reduction in
moisture content in the air above 598 meters. A stronger in-
version developed after mid-morning when the reported base
was 226 meters and top was 287 meters. By 12 noon, the Lidar
data revealed mixing depth to be approximately 213 to 305
meters above the surface over the Fullerton/Anaheim area.
Local weather was clear skies by 1100 PDT along with a re-
duction in absolute moisture above 287 meters. Throughout
the distance traveled from Downey to the Orange Freeway in
Fullerton, backscatter from the inversion base altitude fluc-
tuated over a 168 meter range indicating some variability in
space and time. High peak values for the mixing depth near
Pomona and Orange Freeway possibly indicated strong vertical
mixing produced by air parcel heating from high ground temper-
atures. Wind conditions were generally mild (6-12 kts)
throughout the afternoon. The average mixing depth remained
about 274 meters throughout the afternoon.

MISSION DAY - 10/11/73
The meteorological conditions on the llth represented a day
of significant contrasts beginning with stable temperature
lapse condition at 0700 PDT and changing to unstable condi-
tions in late morning (1100 PDT). An elevated haze layer was
indicated from visual observations made at the launch site,
which was verified by the existence of a weak upper level
temperature inversion between 226 and 418 meters. The late
morning, 1100 PDT, radiosonde release showed this condition
to have disappeared and an overall neutral temperature pro-
file to evolve.
Lidar returns recorded at the launch site between 0750 and
0820 PDT revealed the existence of a 100 meter thick layer
beginning at approximately 320 meters above the surface.
During the next two hours, weak echoes signifying another
interface were occasionally observed above this altitude
although no comparable evidence was found from the radio-
sonde profiles.
Beginning with the 0845 PDT Lidar returns, a breakup of the
layered structure was manifested by random echoes occurring
at various altitudes. It is probable that during that time,
a shift to neutral temperature condition occurred.
Minor maintenance problems during the morning temporarily
deferred taking Lidar data from 0950 to 1155 PDT. Resuming
Lidar operation, this time in the Malibu foothills, a differ-
ent layering was discovered. Most likely this layering at
440 to 525 meters (a.g.l.) represents the orographic uplift-
ing presented to the onshore marine particulates by the Malibu
cliffs.

MISSION DAY - 10/12/73
A moderate to thick upper level haze persisted along the
coastal areas throughout most of the day. Skies were gen-
erally free of clouds. An early morning ground-based inver-
sion with tops around 598 meters kept this moist air trapped
within the L.A. basin. A definite moisture gradient was
noted in the early morning sounding beginning at 318 meters.
By the time of the 1130 PDT radiosonde release, the inversion
temperature base had risen to 397 meters with a 687 meter top,
A lower humidity content was also reported inland near Bur-
bank, indicating a horizontal moisture gradient existed be-
tween the coastal areas and the foothills.
i
Lidar data taken at the downtown L.A. launch site revealed a
lower level haze and fog indicated by severe attenuation of
the backscatter signal. A slight layer penetration was indi-
cated on each return between 0930 to 1000 PDT with the prob-
able tops occurring at about 412 meters. The indicated de-
crease in backscatter content at this altitude directly sup-
ports the fact that fewer water particulates were available
to provide scattering.
The Lidar observing location near midday was at a signifi-
cantly higher altitude (500 meters) than previously, and
subsequently the layers detected were somewhat higher than
before.

MISSION DAY - 10/15/73
The snoptic conditions for the 15th were such that no sig-
nificant meteorological changes occurred during the day in
temperature, wind speed or direction, or humidity. These
conditions were manifested in the Lidar returns by observing
only minor altitude variations in the mixing depth over the
time span from 0730 to 1440 PDT.
Early morning fog and haze were present which limited the
Lidar ceiling at 0730 to about 213 meters above the surface.
This was due to the high order of scattering and attenuation
of the laser pulse by the suspended aerosols. Radiosonde
data placed this early morning inversion base at 196 meters
with tops near 568 meters. Lidar returns from 0820 until
1400 PDT revealed strong layering near the inversion base
or 275 meters, and the region above being overlaid with
cleaner air. This meteorological condition produced a sig-
nificant decrease in backscatter above 365 meters altitude.
Strong trapping seems to have promoted the formation of two
distinct aerosol layers especially at 0738 PDT.
Radiosonde data for 1130 PDT also revealed a strong tempera-
ture gradient of 11 to 12 degrees C, between the inversion
base and top. This probably explains the significant partic-
ulate trapping or layering, which was revealed from Lidar
data, near the base of the inversion.
This was a typical marine layer day. Early morning fog and
stratus in the lowest 200 meters gave way to haze and smoke
by 1000 PDT. Onshore winds, 5-9 mi/hr prevailed during the
late morning and afternoon hours.
The radiosonde observation at the launch site (Downey), 0637
FDT, put the inversion base at 230 meters above the ground.
The Lidar (Downey 31-47) at 0737 PDT indicated that the top
of the aerosol layer was at 200 meters. Taking into con-
sideration the time and space differences of these two obser-
vations, this is fair agreement.
The Lidar showed a gradual increase in the depth of the
ground-based aerosol layer from 0737 PDT to 1128 PDT at which
time a helicopter temperature profile put the inversion base
at 275 meters, the same level at which the Lidar detected the
top of the aerosol layer. The radiosonde observation made at
this time (1130 PDT) at Los Angeles International Airport
(LAX) reported the inversion base at 177 meters. This showed
the typical daytime increase of depth of the .marine (aerosol)
layer with distance inland. LAX is,28 miles west of the
46
-------
location occupied by the Lidar at 1128 PDT. In general the
variations in the mixing height along a line parallel to the
coast are not as severe as on a line normal to the coast,
barring other orographic effects.
At 1143 PDT another helicopter temperature sounding was
taken. Again the height of the base of the temperature in-
version was 275 meters. But now the Lidar began to detect
a scattering of the returns from the top of the aerosol
layer ranging from 245 to 360 meters. By 1230 PDT, the time
of the next helicopter sounding, two layers of aerosols had
emerged as seen by Lidar, one at 185 meters, the other at
320 meters. A small temperature inversion was found at 165
meters and another at 225 meters. Temperature data was not
available above that level. At 1250 PDT, however, another
sounding was taken by helicopter and this one reached 325
meters. The small inversion, previously detected at 225
meters, was no longer present at that level and no longer
was the top of an aerosol layer. Instead, the aerosol pro-
file had simplified with a single layer topping out at 350
meters. It is unfortunate that the helicopter did not pene-
trate the top of the aerosol layer in this case.
The last Lidar measurements were made from 1346 to 1440 PDT
at a site on the north side of the hills that extend east
from Whittier to the Santa Ana River and about one mile west
of the river. Helicopter temperature soundings were not
taken at this place and time. The Lidar revealed that the
top of the aerosol layer on this side of the hills was 100
meters lower than that observed an hour earlier just south
of the hills. The marked change in terrain seems the most
plausible source of the difference in depth of the aerosol
layer. For best comparison with inversion data, consider
the 1230 PDT El Monte radiosonde data. El Monte is also on
the north side of these hills but is 11 miles west northwest
of the Lidar site at 1346 PDT. The raob also was taken an
hour earlier than the Lidar observations. Bearing in mind
these spatial and temporal differences of the two observa-
tions, the inversion base at 200 meters compared reasonably
well with the top of the aerosol layer at about 250 meters.
It is apparent from these data for the morning and afternoon
of October 15, 1973 that the better the time and place match-
up of the inversion base and aerosol layer top measurements,
the better their correspondence.

MISSION DAY - 10/16/73
Early morning conditions began with fog and low ceiling
causing limited visibility to exist throughout most of the
Los Angeles basin. A surface based inversion existed within
the central Los Angeles region and sloped upward toward the
coastline reaching a height of 177 meters at 0540. The tem-
perature profile obtained at the launch site also revealed a
surface inversion base. Some stratus and light haze and fog
persisted throughout the day. Radiosonde data for El Monte
at 1345 PDT showed a strong gradient at the inversion base at
307 meters with a corresponding reduction in moisture content
above that height.
Lidar operation began at approximately 12 noon near launch
site "A" in central Los Angeles. The remnants of the early
morning fog were evident in all the returns, with indications
that opacity of the haze was not sufficient to fully attenuate
all of the scattered energy. The characteristic boundary
separating the upper level dry air from the moist air beneath
the inversion was indicated in the raw data. The boundary
height corresponds closely with the inversion base reported
by the 1340 PDT El Monte radiosonde.
The route followed by the Lidar van from noon until 1530 PDT
closely parallels the San Gabriel Mountains. Some degree of
influence by terrain features was evidenced by a gradual
height increase of the inversion boundary as the observation
point proceeded toward the mountains.

MISSION DAY - 10/17/73
Early morning fog and stratus were blanketing all coastal
areas and as far inland as Burbank and central Los Angeles.
The 0500 PDT radiosonde records for both LAX and El Monte
show humidity values decreasing appreciably above 200 meters
indicating the wide spatial extent of the upper level mois-
ture layer. A low level, 77 meters, inversion base existed
near the coast but was surface based in El Monte and the
launch site in central Los Angeles. The typical temperature
inversion top was also present above the moisture layer at
about 446 meters, rising to a height of 688 meters near the
mountains.
The characteristic signal returns from a combination moisture
and pollution layer were evident in the Lidar data from 0930
to 1350 PDT. The base of this layer remained consistently
within the 300 to 500 meter altitude region from 0930 to ap-
proximately 1300 PDT. This base is indicated on the chart.
Following that time, the boundary appeared to dissipate or
became intermixed with the low level haze already present.
Penetration through this layer to drier air above was re-
vealed by the scattering discontinuity. The moisture profile
from the El Monte radiosonde record was seen to correspond
with the heights given here. Also at 1350 PDT, the energy
from the laser began dropping and resulted in what appeared
to be a decrease in the moisture gradient boundary. This sit-
uation was not remedied in time before two hours of data re-
cording had elapsed.

MISSION DAY - 10/18/73
Weather conditions for Los Angeles and vicinity were uni-
form throughout the basin for ground temperature, humidity
and winds. Some early morning haze was indicated near the
coast, and skies contained some upper level clouds during
the morning and late afternoon.
Radiosonde data for both LAX and El Monte showed a surface
based inversion at 0530 PDT. Higher ground temperatures at
midday contributed to an altitude increase in the inversion
base by 68 meters along the coast, but created a near-adia-
batic condition in the interior regions. Very light surface
winds, less than 5 knots, prevented any maintenance of the
inversion condition by the cooler marine layer. The LAX
radiosonde data at 1130 PDT recorded the inversion top at
approximately 570 meters, only slightly higher than the pre-
vious sounding.
The Lidar backscatter profiles all appeared to undergo
measurable attenuation, as encountered in a fog or water/
haze atmosphere. Detected near ground level at the launch
site was the existence of echoes indicative of stratification
similar to trapping at the inversion base. It is likely that
the inversion base was above ground for that morning, but
was not within the temperature resolution limits for the
radiosonde. The echoes returned from this region began fluc-
tuating in altitude after 1000 PDT, becoming weaker and dis-
appearing altogether after 12 noon.
The significance of the upper level data does not appear
directly related to the temperature structure but rather to
a discontinuity between air masses. Some fallof in moisture
concentration at this level was found in the radiosonde pro-
files. However, the existence of significant attenuation
that appeared in the backscatter returns is cause to suspect
a combination of moisture and absorbing mechanisms that
could have been distributed beneath the inversion top.
On the return to the launch site at about 1135 PDT, an ele-
vated layer between 205 and 377 meters (a.g.l.) was again
detected. Moving eastward to La Miracia, discontinuties still
appeared from this altitude although no definitive indication
of moisture or temperature inversion could be found.

MISSION DAY - 10/24/73
The early morning meteorological conditions at the launch
site revealed a surface based inversion topped by a second
inversion base at approximately 520 meters. This temperature
structure was significantly different compared to the LAX
0532 PDT radiosonde data or the El Monte 0656 PDT data. A
significant amount of moisture was detected in all cases to
altitudes in excess of 800 meters. Wind directions changed
along the coast and inland between morning and afternoon
hours, adding ground level moisture and maintaining some
haze and obscured visibility. A well developed inversion
also appeared in the afternoon (1130 PDT) LAX sounding, with
a base at 138 meters and top at 558 meters (a.g.l.).
The early morning (0828 PDT) Lidar data revealed remnants of
the multiple inversion base. Scattering appeared randomly
distributed between the 503 meter level and 777 meter level.
Throughout the next three hours, the indicated significant
levels drop in altitude in agreement to what was observed in
the radiosonde profiles.
The Lidar returns from 1114 to almost 12 noon, were consis-
tently layered between 475 and 560 meters (a.g.l.) indicating
a strong trapping condition for any particulates. This level,
when corrected for regional differences in altitude, corre-
sponded to the reported temperature inversion base.

MISSION DAY - 10/25/73
Haze and light fog for the morning of the 25th were found
along the coastal areas; however, visibility conditions in-
land toward Burbank and central Los Angeles were 10 miles or
better. Skies were clear, and some haze or obscuration de-
veloped over most of the Los Angeles basin for the remainder
of the day.
Both LAX and El Monte radiosonde records indicated a surface
based inversion with a top above 900 meters (a.g.l.). The
1130 PDT release at LAX showed that surface heating had now
raised the base slightly to 147 meters with a second weaker
base existing near 357 meters.
Lidar returns for the morning all indicated the presence of
haze with scattering and attenuation extending from 183 to
625 meters (a.g.l.). Beginning at the launch site at 0743
PDT, the typical air mass discontinuity was detected just
above the local inversion height, or 350 meters. Time sepa-
ration between radiosonde releases prevented any meaningful
comparison. However, the temperature profile obtained with
the release from the 7th and Alameda launch site, at 0641
PDT, showed the possibility of a second level inversion base
developed at around 300 meters. The existence of this second
inversion base was revealed in the 1130 PDT release from LAX.
Lidar observations from points west and north from the down-
town launch site indicated height variations of the mixing
layer depth. No significant echoes were received from the
vicinity of the lower inversion base at 147 meters.

MISSION DAY - 10/26/73
On the morning of the 26th, ground fog and haze existed until
approximately 0900 PDT. Discontinuities in the Lidar back-
scatter indicated a horizontal layering at approximately 250-
350 meters altitude. Radiosonde data from the early morning
release (0539 PDT) revealed a fairly uniform moisture profile
extending to above 610 meters. In existence at this time was
an elevated inversion with base and top of 318 meters and 787
meters respectively. The backscatter data revealed the haze
extended to just below the inversion base altitude.
The 1130 radiosonde data revealed ground and air temperatures
increased along with an influx of moist air from the coast.
The marine layer was observed to progressively get shallower
during the morning, and was characterized by a lowering of
the inversion base to 257 meters. This was accompanied by a
subsequent lowering of the top to 379 meters. A reduced
temperature gradient was also noted which could account for
the slightly greater altitude dispersion in Lidar backscat-
ter. Backscatter from this altitude fluctuated over a 76
meter range, indicating only minor variability with distance
or time.
After 1330 PDT, when the Lidar van was in North Long Beach,
Lidar signals decreased in both magnitude and position of in-
dicated mixing depth. This change in signal strength may
have been in part due to an increase in observed low level
haze, an additional attenuating mechanism. Nevertheless, a
downward shift was noted for the upper limit of scattering by
any layers present.

MISSION DAY - 10/27/73
The meteorological conditions for the 27th and during the
next three days, were typical for those encountered during a
foehn flow or Southern California Santa Ana. Early morning
temperatures were in the middle 50's throughout the basin but
climbed quickly to the 90's just a short distance inland from
the coast. Humidity values also decreased markedly before
midday reaching 13% even in Long Beach. Radiosonde data from
0548 PDT indicated the presence of a ground-based or near-
surface inversion base with top of around 467 meters (a.g.l.),
A strong humidity gradient was present just above the surface
with exceptionally dry air noted above 104 meters. This
level of dry air remained practically unchanged throughout
the day. The late morning temperature profile showed a re-
versal of the temperature structure to near neutral condition,
Lidar returns for the entire day revealed a characteristic
signature typical for an atmosphere having a low optical ex-
tinction. All returns prior to 12 noon indicated the pres-
ence of a low level (60 meters) inversion. The magnitude of
the gradient indicated by this trapping increased through the
morning reaching a maximum between 1030 and 1100 PDT. This
condition was manifested in the Lidar raw data traces by
backscatter intensity fluctuations increasing from 20 to 40%
within the inversion altitude. Also apparent from the raw
data signals was the existence of elevated scattering layers
at approximately 549 and 850 meters (a.g.l.). These signals
were transitory in nature, lasting only minutes each time,
and were indicative of aerosols trapped within the boundary
flows of upper level winds. The maximum mixing depth in the
plot for the 27th was also indicative of the upper level
reached by convected aerosols, and may not represent a true
thermal boundary. The lower scattering levels (less than 76
meters) represent the actual inversion interface.
Other features of the Lidar data show only minor altitude
differences of the scatter levels with distance, indicating a
fairly uniform spatial flow or subsidence within the L.A.
basin.

MISSION DAY - 10/29/73
The conditions supporting a foehn flow were not as prevalent
as for the 27th; however, the presence of low humidity values
throughout the entire basin was indicative of the presence of
dry air. The 0530 PST radiosonde profile for LAX and El
Monte indicated a surface inversion with tops around 600 me-
ters (a.g.l.) near the coast and mountains. The presence of
very dry air near 90 meters (a.g.l.) at LAX indicated a
strong gradient condition separating the boundary of the ma-
rine layer.
The temperature profile from the 1130 PST LAX radiosonde
showed existence of an elevated inversion beginning at ap-
proximately 348 meters (a.g.l.) with near neutral conditions
existing below that point.
Very detailed structures shown in the Lidar signatures were
received for this day, indicative of particulate or air mass
turbulence to heights of 732 meters (a.g.l.). The early
morning (0740 PST) data indicated the presence of a possible
thermal inversion near 82 meters (a.g.l.). This layer, or
interface, remained at approximately the same altitude until
the conclusion of the Lidar operation at 1318 PST. The upper
boundary of high scattering changed from the 823 meters
(a.g.l.) at 0742 PST to 500 meters (a.g.l.) at 1318 PST.
Since near neutral lapse conditions prevailed over most of
the day, mechanical turbulence may be responsible for the in-
sertion of particulates at the upper boundary. This bound-
ary was also marked by a weak temperature inversion which
existed between 348 meters and 625 meters in the L.A. basin.
Fluctuations in the height of this upper boundary were ob-
served in the Lidar data. However, it was difficult to find
reasons for this behavior through comparisons with either
time or distance traveled.

MISSION DAY - 10/30/73
Ground level meteorological conditions for the 30th were sim-
ilar to the previous two days except that stronger low level
winds from the southeast were present. A surface inversion
was reported at 0550 PST with tops at 287 meters (a.g.l.) ex-
tending to 347 meters (a.g.l.) in the eastern section of the
Los Angeles basin. Daytime temperatures increased on the
ground, changing the stable conditions to superadiabatic
around noon. Again, a significant gradient in moisture con-
centration at less than 30 meters (a.g.l.) was indicated in
all radiosonde releases for the day, with extreme dryness
aloft.
The conditions indicating turbulent mixing aloft were mani-
fested in the Lidar returns by the random scattering occur-
ring at extremely high altitudes (732-1200 meters). Detec-
tion of the lower thermal inversion was again evident in the
early morning returns. Some degree of layer breakup was
noted here before noon. The conditions of stronger ground
level winds together with vertical convection could probably
destroy any structure features. Numerous random echoes from
transient layers were also noted existing in the raw Lidar
data. Although an upper level was detected, this mixing
layer was more indicative of the buildup of turbulent layer.
The unique characteristic of the Lidar signature signifying
this was evident in the extinction or slope of the return
versus range.

MISSION DAY - 10/31/73
The effects of the previous three days of Santa Ana conditions
may have contributed to the good visibility and low haze re-
ported on the morning of the 31st. Wind components above 305
meters, however, indicated convergence of air from the north
and northwest directions as detected by the 1130 PST radio-
sonde from LAX. This represents a reversal from the previous
day's soundings.
A ground-based inversion existed during the morning hours but
moved upward to 77 meters along the coastal regions before
noon. Higher surface temperatures inland may have contributed
to the high inversion base altitude of 628 meters over El
Monte at 1335 PST. Surface winds over most of the Los Angeles
basin returned to a typical sea breeze condition after 12
noon.
Lidar returns from the 7th and Alameda location, indicated
the presence of layered aerosol structure at approximately
the height of the reported inversion base. Records later that
morning, from observation points due west, showed a gradual
disappearance of echoes from this altitude. Considerable lay-
ering was evident throughout the region from 200 through 450
meters. Many of the signal echoes were transitory in nature.
The slope of the inversion base, lying between LAX and El
Monte, could well have occurred within the altitude region
being detected by the Lidar. Some indications from wind data
as well revealed wind shears within the region between 305
and 457 meters (a.g.l.). A likely mechanism could be that
the residual pollution was trapped by wind shears.

MISSION DAY - 11/1/73
Weather conditions were fairly uniform throughout most of the
Los Angeles basin for the entire day. The restrictions in
visibility due to haze, and some early morning fog, did not
clear in late afternoon. Partly cloudy skies kept ground
temperatures in the mid 50's during the day.
The inversion base which existed at 0540 PST was well above
the surface (446 meters) over LAX, but was reported on the
surface near El Monte. The 1220 PST sounding at LAX showed
the base had risen to 668 meters (a.g.l.), at which point the
temperature increased 4°C over the next 774 meters.
Similar conditions prevailed over the central region near
El Monte. The 1330 PST radiosonde record showed the inver-
sion base at 740 meters (a.g.l.) with nearly isothermal con-
ditions (i 1°C) up to an altitude of 1377 meters (a.g.l.).
A similar lapse rate was measured at the 7th and Alameda
launch site at 0530 PST. The weak temperature gradient con-
ditions over both locations would offer only minimal trapping
effects to surface generated effluents.
A predominant characteristic of the Lidar backscatter for
that day was the minimum signal attenuation throughout the
altitude range of 762 meters. No thermally created layering
was at all detectable beneath 365 meters from 0730 until 1200
PST. Following that time, a recurring echo from about 46
meters (a.g.l.) signifies the existence of a thermal struc-
ture not indicated from radiosonde profiles.
Within the region from 640 to 732 meters (a.g.l.), light
turbidity was found to occur on an intermittent basis. The
temporal and spatial randomness of backscatter within this
region is evident from the accompanying chart.

MISSION DAY - 11/2/73
Cloudy conditions prevailed over most of the Southern Cali-
fornia regions for the entire day. The ground level temper-
ature did not vary by more than 8 degrees over the 24 hours,
generally staying below 67 degrees. Radiosonde releases at
LAX and El Monte showed no traces of a temperature inversion,
however a minor one was reported at 1550 meters in the 0825
Downey launch data. The existence of cloudy conditions was
revealed by the moisture level increases above 300 meters.
An electronic failure in the recording system prevented the
recovery of a significant portion of Lidar data for 2 Novem-
ber. The mixing level heights were taken from the Polaroid
prints of the unprocessed signal returns used as a backup for
the day's operation.
Indicated in each Lidar return from that day was the predom-
inately high scattering intensity from a stratus deck at
about 700-800 meters. The layer was at times as much as 400
meters thick but contained numerous breaks. The upper level
stratus top was placed at above 1300 meters with some degree
of uncertainty here due to the significant beam attenuation
encountered, and height variations of the lower boundary.

MISSION DAY - 11/5/73
An early morning light haze near the coast was the only vis-
ibility limiting feature for the day, with visibilities of
near 10 miles inland. Warmer conditions inland, in the low
70's, along with a ground-based inversion produced a partial
trapping condition for that morning. The radiosonde profile
for the 0525 PST Downey site and the 0530 PST LAX site both
indicated the surface inversion and a second temperature in-
version gradient of 0.5°C at approximately 778 meters. By
early afternoon, surface heating had substantially removed
all traces of the earlier inversion.
Lidar returns for most of the morning indicated the exis-
tence of a low level (60-80 meter) layer, possibly due to the
reported inversion. Numerous layers and scattering irregu-
larity also existed. A transition from the turbid region in-
to a cleaner air was manifested by the usual scatter inten-
sity drop-off at just above 450-465 meters. A check of the
radiosonde humidity profiles for that morning showed only a
slight decrease in moisture content beginning at 400 ireters.
The heights of measured signal returns appeared rather uni-
form considering the large spatial separation or distance
traveled by the Lidar van for that day.
Temperature profiles obtained by helicopter all terminated
at too low an elevation, about 300 meters, to be useful to
the analysis on that day which had the top of the aerosol
layer predominantly above 400 meters and much of the time a
great deal higher. The only exception was the special ver-
tical pattern flown by the helicopter at.1340 PST. This re-
vealed a weak inversion layer between 375 and 450 meters at
the same time that the Lidar reported tops of the aerosol
layer ranging between 360 and 400 meters.

MISSION DAY - 11/6/73
The meteorological conditions for the 6th were similar to
those of the previous day. A similar but perhaps stronger
inversion existed near ground level with a top of around
1068 meters at LAX during the morning. A complex multiple
temperature gradient was revealed in the LAX and El Monte
radiosonde profiles. Using the 1130 PST radiosonde obser-
vation from LAX as reference, the secondary temperature
base was located between 366 meters and 537 meters with a
top of about 796 meters. Later profiles showed the surface
based inversion had disappeared, but some trapping still
existed because the unique temperature structure persisted
above 300 meters.
Lidar returns for the period between 0640 and 0800 PST re-
vealed the presence of a significant layer at 240 meters
(a.g.l.). Although an inversion gradient of 2.0°C was in-
dicated on the 0628 PST LAX profile, an increase in dewpoint
temperature also appeared at this corresponding altitude.
The lower level appeared to shift downward with time in
the Lidar photos, and disappeared at around 1000 PST. Beam
penetration into the cleaner air was again manifested by
the signal falloff above 650 meters (a.g.l.). The region
between 650 and 800 meters represents several temperature
gradients of about 1.3°C, as reported on the 1130 radiosonde,

MISSION DAY - 11/7/73
Conditions were again very uniform over most of Southern Cali-
fornia, with only light to moderate early morning haze and
fog reported along the coast. A ground-based temperature in-
version existed during early morning with a top of around 586
meters. The top effectively moved up to 1067 meters during
the day. By noon, surface heating had removed the lower in-
versipn but a secondary inversion with a temperature gradient
of 1.6°C still existed between 616 and 1067 meters (a.g.l.).
The early morning Lidar returns revealed boundary layer pene-
tration between 400 and 600 meters where the only significant
feature seemed to be the upper level temperature inversion
top near 680 meters. The region between 400 and 600 meters
exhibited less attenuation per unit path length as compared
to the atmosphere below 400 meters. The lower level inver-
sion base, or remnants thereof, continued to be detected for
most of the day. However, what appeared to be a low level
inversion indication, may have been the result of multiple
vertically stacked layers, each having a successively lower
attenuation coefficient than the one below. At the uppermost
level, 640 meters, no corresponding gradient in temperature
or humidity could be found that would correlate or explain
the Lidar signatures.

Lidar data tapes are a part of the LARPP data archive.
16. ABSTRACT
This program was conducted in support of the Los Angeles Reactive
Pollutant Program (LARPP), jointly sponsored by the Coordinating
Research Council and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. A
mobile Lidar system, mounted in a van, was used to depict the temporal
and spatial variations of the mixing depth over the Los Angeles Basin,
during the LARPP field tests in the fall of 1973. Lidar
profiles are interpreted and compared to vertical temperature and
moisture profiles measured by helicopter and standard meteorological
sounding techniques. Lidar echo anomalies are classified into mixing
layer height or significant levels based on backscatter slop evaluation.
The qualitative aspects of each backscatter signature are used in •
describing the nature and altitude of inversion bases, moisture
layers, stratus and fog layers.
