J. T. Sullivan (GSFC), G. Sumnicht (SSAI), and L. Twigg (SSAI) — The Aerosol and Temperature Lidar (AT Lidar) has been rebuilt, and now includes water vapor to >10 km, temperature in the troposphere using rotational Raman backscatter, stratospheric temperature up to ~80 km, and aerosol parameters using elastic and Raman backscatter up to ~35 km. It has participated in ozone intercomparisons at the Table Mountain Facility in June 2005 and in water vapor intercomparisons during the MOHAVE campaign of October 2006, 2007, and 2009. Data through 2009 is archived in the name of the previous PI – McGee.
