Abstract
The article examines the effectiveness of airborne High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL) measurements for aerosol classification. It states that the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) HSRL applies technique to retrieve aerosol extinction, aerosol optical thickness, backscatter, and depolarization profiles. The HSRL-based classification found vertical variability of aerosol types during the field mission conducted in Alaska and northwest Canada.
