[A Singular Value Decomposition Method for Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy System to Remove Systematic Noises].

Detection of gas concentration with tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) techniques is affected by baseline drift and high-frequency noise. Therefore, how to remove the systematic noises has been a hot spot. This paper analyzes the significance of singular value decomposition (SVD) in TDLAS detection system with two different methods of constructing a matrix, and it discusses the differences of processing results for different noises.

[Ultraviolet Mie lidar observations of aerosol extinction in a dust storm case over Macao].

Atmospheric aerosol over Macao was monitored by using a 355 nm Mie scattering lidar during the dust event on March 22nd, 2010. Vertical profiles of aerosol extinction coefficients were obtained and correlated with local PM10 concentration. The near-surface aerosol extinction coefficients have good agreement with PM10 concentration values.
