First Urban Boundary layer determination from Lidar measurements at Natal (Brazil). In: WORKSHOP ON LIDAR MEASUREMENTS IN LATIN AMERICA, 9th, July 17-22, 2016, Santos, SP. <b>Abstract...</b> Disponível em: http://repositorio.ipen.br/handle/123456789/27998.http://repositorio.ipen.br/handle/123456789/27998The planetary boundary layer (PBL) height is a crucial parameter for air quality monitoring or forecasting and is essential for the interpretation of atmospheric constituents. A first determination of PBL height has been done through the identification of the minimum in the vertical gradients of Lidar profiles measured with a multiwavelength polarized Lidar system (named DUSTER) developed by the Laser Environmental Application Laboratory (LEAL) at the Nuclear and Energy Research Institute (IPEN, São Paulo, Brazil) and installed in February, 2016 at the Department of Atmospheric and Climate Sciences of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) in the city of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, in the Brazilian Northeast (5°50’29 S, 35°11’57 W, sea level). In this work, the first information about daily evolution of urban PBL height in Natal is presented.openAccessResumo de eventos científicoshttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-9691-5306
