Abstract

The Raman lidar technique was developed for the remote measurement of temperature and salinity profiles. A temperature accuracy of 0.5 degrees Centigrade is attainable in a practical field system for depths of up to 3 diffuse attenuation lengths, which can be 100 meters or more in the open ocean. In this paper field test results are reviewed and performance specifications for typical Raman lidar systems are presented.
