Abstract

A XeF (351 nm) Raman lidar has been used to monitor tropospheric aerosols over the Sallentum peninsula of Italy (40° 20 minute N, 18° 6 minute E) and the vertical profile measurements of the aerosol extinction and backscatter coefficient and of the lidar ratio are presented in the paper. The measurements have been performed on a fixed schedule along one year and reveal that the aerosols are confined to lower altitudes and are characterized by larger lidar ratio values during autumn and winter months.
