Sondrestrom Lidar Operation Log


Operator(s) : John Geiszler
Purpose : Rayleigh data collection
Date(s) : 050719 - 050719
File(s) : L20050719_000 - L20050719_001
Comments : Na channel inactive to allow for dye change.
The power on the Rayleigh laser seemed a bit low when I turned it up. I couldn't
get it above ~500mJ even after adjusting the HG.
