This project will provide continuous observations of mixing layer depth during the Texas Air Quality Study II campaign using a ground-based micropulse lidar (MPL). This critical parameter would be measured along two planes, one between Moody Tower and the Wells Fargo Plaza Tower in down-town Houston thus providing ta separate 2-D “wall” of the daytime and nighttime urban boundary layer height and aerosol optical depths. The vertical plane between Moody Tower and downtown Houston provide co-located measurements with the DOAS. The observations from these lidar measurements will be made available to all participants of the 2006 campaign, including the air quality modelers who need to validate urban boundary layer heights which are known to be a critical parameter for many components of their modeling. It will also serve the scientific interests of a number of TRAMP investigators, including those who are investigating nocturnal mixing and the role of this process on nighttime chemistry.
