The objective of the present study is the design of a lidar for the measurement of vertical profiles of liquid water content in fogs. Presently, there is no system able to measure such profile. The liquid water content is measured at ground or at limited number of altitudes. Yet, the information would improve our understanding of fog processes and provide valuable data for controlling fog forecast models. Its feasibility is theoretically possible because it was shown in the late 70s that the liquid water content and the optical extinction at 11μm are empirically linked by a linear relationship. My first objective was to test this relationship with rencent observations more precise than in the late 70s. The relationship is confirmed within l...
