摘要
The Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) satellite will fly in a polar orbit as part of the Aqua constellation to vertically profile aerosols and clouds using the first satellite lidar dedicated to atmospheric sensing. The payload also includes passive visible and infrared sensors, which will use data from the Lidar to improve their retrieval accuracies. These measurements will be used to improve our knowledge of the role of aerosols and clouds in the climate system.
