DESCRIPTION:The Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Obser
 vation (CALIPSO) satellite is a NASA and French CNES joint satellite progr
 am. It was launched in 2006 to provide new insight into the role that clou
 ds and atmospheric aerosols play in regulating Earth's weather\, climate\,
  and air quality. It has a design lifetime of three years and has been ope
 rating in space for 16+ years since its launch. A two-wavelength (532 nm a
 nd 1064 nm) polarization-sensitive backscatter lidar is a key instrument o
 n board the CALIPSO payload that provides high-resolution vertical profile
 s of aerosols and clouds. In this presentation I will give a brief introdu
 ction to the CALIPSO lidar and its various applications with a focus on du
 st transatlantic transport.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Ramesh Singh (rsingh@chapm
