Abstract

The results of a complex pyranometric-lidar experiment are discussed. The optical and geometric characteristics of the high-level clouds (HLCs) are estimated from the polarization laser sensing data. Scattered radiation was recorded in the near-zenith area using a zenith-directed pyranometer simultaneously with the lidar measurements. The change in the diurnal variation of the pyranometer signal at the time corresponding to the lidar registration of the HLCs with a preferred horizontal orientation of ice crystals (specular clouds) is shown.
