Differential Absorption LIDAR AMBER 5

LIDAR AMBER 5 is dedicated for 3D monitoring of air pollution agents such as Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), and Ozone (O3) in the troposphere.

Differential Absorption LIDAR AMBER 5 is a laser spectroscopy system dedicated for 3D monitoring of air pollution such as Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), and Ozone (O3) in the troposphere. It allows measuring of relative changes in spatial and temporal distribution of the aerosols.

Applications

  • 3D monitoring of air pollution agents such as Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) and Ozone (O3) in the troposphere
  • Monitoring of Benzene (C6H6), Toluene (C7H8). In this case interference (overlapping) of absorption bands of other substances in the air should be properly taken into the account
