Optical Remote Sensing Research at Montana State University

Shaw, J.A., Repasky, K., and Carlsten, J.A., Montana State University
Thirteenth Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Science Team Meeting

We describe a new, growing research program at Montana State University in Bozeman, Montana in development and application of optical remote sensors, including lidars and radiometers. The remote sensor program builds on well-established expertise in laser development. Current activities include: 1) small, portable water vapor lidar using tunable diode lasers developed at MSU; 2) dual-polarization lidar for aerosols, clouds, vegetation, and fish; 3) the Infrared Cloud Imager (ICI) for measuring spatial cloud statistics; 4) FTIR spectro-radiometry of the atmosphere; 5) novel infrared imaging spectrometers and related work.
