Notes:
- DIAL measures ozone densities, the molecular densities from the
RAQMS model (PI: Brad Pierce) have been used to calculate mixing ratios.
- The DIAL ozone images contain insitu
ozone from the FASTOZ instrument (PI: Melody Avery) at DC-8 flight
altitudes.
- Rayleigh attenuation corrections and scattering ratio
normalizations have used molecular densities from the RAQMS model (PI:
Brad Pierce).
- A first order aerosol attenuation correction has been applied to
the aerosol data using extinction-to-backscatter ratios of 30 (IR) and 45
(
