A differential absorption lidar method utilizing the spectral and energetic properties of high-power, pulsed laser diodes for remote sensing of atmospheric humidity is reported. The laser radiation of selected complementary laser diodes is multiplexed in dual spectral channels centered at optimal wavelength of 0.86µm and 0.911µm. Humidity profiles...

International comparisons of relative humidity scales at the highest level are often challenging because of significant drift of the impedance-based transfer standard, which reduces the accuracy of comparison. Comparisons that are shorter or have fewer participants may be less affected by drift, but ultimately require more inter-linking with their...
