Abstract

The slope method is widely recognized for handling of lidar signals in homogeneous atmosphere. We propose and investigate a modification of this method that is aimed to evaluation of the extinction coefficient in the center of an isolated aerosol layer. Thus obtained point estimate may be used further as a boundary value in other analytical inversion methods.
