CLASSIFICATION OF CLOUDS AND AEROSOLS
A case study illuminates the classification of clouds and aerosols in the lidar data. Figure
2 gives an example of the classification results for the LITE orbit 83 in September 15,
1994. The layers of clouds and aerosols are quite distinct. In particular, the layers of
low, middle, and high clouds are quite separate.
