M&A Directory Entry

J. T. Sullivan (GSFC), L. Twigg (SSAI), and G. Sumnicht (SSAI) — The STROZ lidar retrieves ozone vertical profiles in the stratosphere from 10 to 50 km. Temperature to ~80 km and aerosols (at 355 nm) to 35 km also are measured. The instrument has also been modified to measure water vapor from near the ground to ~15 km. As a mobile intercomparator, it has participated in ozone intercomparisons at Lauder October–December 1992, March–October 1994, April 1995, September–December 2001, April 2002, June–July 2011, and April 2012. Data through 2012 is archived in the name of the previous PI – McGee.
