Short-range elastic backscatter lidar (SR-EBL) systems are remote sensing instruments for studying low atmospheric boundary layer processes. This work presents a field campaign oriented to filling the gap between the near-surface aerosol processes regarding aerosol radiative properties and connecting them with the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), centering attention on the residual layer and the ABL transition periods. A Colibri Aerosol Lidar (CAL) instrument, based on the short-range lidar with high spatio-temporal resolution, was used for the first time in the ACTRIS AGORA facility (Andalusian Global Observatory of the Atmosphere) in Granada (Spain). This study showed the possibility of combining lidar and in situ measurements in the lowermost 150 m. The results address, on the one hand, the characterization of the short-range lidar for developing a method to find the calibration constant of the system and to correct the incomplete overlap to further data exploitation. On the other hand, relevant radiative properties such as the temporal series of the aerosol lidar ratio and extinction coefficient were quantified. The campaign was divided in three different periods based on the vehicular emission peak in the early mornings, namely, before, during, and after the emission peak. For before and after the emission peak data classification, aerosol properties presented closer values; however, large variability was obtained after the emission peak reaching the maximum values of extinction and a lidar ratio up to 51.5 ± 11.9 (Mm)−1 and 36.0 ± 10.5 sr, respectively. During the emission peaks, the values reached for extinction and lidar ratio were up to 136.8 ± 26.5 (Mm)−1 and 119.0 ± 22.7 sr, respectively. |
