Abstract

From June to August 1998 the ALOMAR Rayleigh/Mie/Raman lidar, located at 69°N and 16°E in Northern Norway, repeatedly observed noctilucent clouds (NLCs) overhead the lidar. Due to a recent upgrade in detector technology, the lidar was able to obtain 151 hours of NLC observations, simultaneously at 3...
