Accurate three-dimensional spatiotemporal distribution information on near-surface aerosols is of great significance for environmental research. In this study, a 3D scanning coaxial Mie lidar (3D-STML) was developed to achieve a fast three-dimensional scanning observation of aerosol diffusion processes in near-surface areas. 3D-STML generates high-spatiotemporal resolution images of aerosol extinction coefficient in real-time and captures the dynamic changes of aerosols in near real-time. By optimizing the design of the light guide mirror and the telescope sub-mirror, the system has a small overlap. Based on this, a highly stable and high-speed mechanical rotation mechanism was developed to enable three-dimensional observations. The integration of a solid-state high-repetition-rate pulsed laser and a coaxial, optical system for the transmitter and receiver ensures rapid tracking of aerosol plumes. To meet the observation requirements of near-surface aerosols, an aerosol inversion algorithm combining the Fernald and Klett methods was designed and developed. For aerosol plume monitoring needs, an aerosol plume-tracking algorithm based on Kalman filtering was developed to track the spatiotemporal evolution of aerosols automatically. Experimental results demonstrated that 3D-STML is capable of detecting aerosols in a range from 15 m to 4 km, with a distance resolution of 1.5 m and a time resolution of 0.083 s. It can effectively track and capture aerosol plumes. It can be used for large-scale, long-term observation of near-surface aerosols and for monitoring the spatiotemporal evolution of aerosol plumes. |
