dc.description.abstract | Since launching in April 2006 the primary objective of the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) mission has been studying the climate impact of clouds and aerosols in the atmosphere. However, recent studies have demonstrated that both daytime and nighttime CALIPSO lidar measurements can also be used to estimate certain ocean subsurface properties such as sub-surface particulate backscatter at 532 nm. These sub-surface particulate measurements may help improve estimates of primary productivity and particulate inorganic carbon (PIC) throughout the coastal and open oceans of the world, thus improving our understanding of the ocean carbon cycle. This study introduces the ocean profiling measurement concept and its potential scientific applications. | en_US |
