Popis: Three field missions were conducted at Wallops Island, VA in August and September 1995. The NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Scanning Raman Lidar participated in all three campaigns by measuring water vapor for ground truth comparisons. We present water vapor comparisons from 3 lidars, 2 in situ hygrometers, VIZ and Vaisala hygrometers, and an infrared interferometer. The comparisons agree to within 5–10% from the ground up to 7 km.
