There are some blanks on the raw signal image due to the mini receiver experiments. The UAH ceilometer curtain shows thick aerosols in the PBL, transported from Montana. A ozonesonde was launched at 19:06 UT. The lidar ozone retrievals are (~10%) higher than the sonde measurements in the PBL, maybe partly due to the aerosol interferences.
