Title | | 'Low Layer SCIDAR: a turbulence profiler for the first kilometer with very high altitude-resolution' |
Abstract | | The Low Layer Scidar (LOLAS) is aimed at monitoring the turbulence profiles in the first kilometer, with an altitude resolution that can reach 17 m. Its concept is based on the Generalized Scidar technique, but is implemented on a 40-cm dediated telescope, which makes it an autonomous instrument, ideal for long term site studies.
We present the LOLAS concept, peculiarities and first results.
