Overview of the UHOH Water Vapor DIAL Measurements: Vertical profiles and fields of moisture and aerosols during HOPE — •Florian Späth, Shravan Kumar Muppa, Simon Metzendorf, Andrea Riede, Andreas Behrendt, and Volker Wulfmeyer — University of Hohenheim, Institute of Physics and Meteorology, Garbenstr. 30, 70599 Stuttgart, Gemany

The water vapor (WV) differential absorption lidar (DIAL) of the University of Hohenheim (UHOH) is able to measure 3-dimensional WV fields with very high resolution in space and time. To reach high resolution, a high power injection seeded Ti:Sapphire laser with 250 Hz and a 80-cm scanning telescope are used.

Embedded in the project HD(CP)2 (High Definition Clouds and Precipitation for advancing Climate Prediction), in spring 2013 the HD(CP)2 Observational Prototype Experiment (HOPE) took place near Jülich, Germany. Within HOPE, measurements of the WV fields were performed with the UHOH WV DIAL. For the first time, the new UHOH data retrieval was applied to these measurements. Results of vertical and scanning measurements will be presented at the conference.
