Abstract: An algorithm is developed and detailed in this paper which determines atmospheric aerosol parameters such as backscatter and extinction coefficients, aerosol optical thickness, and the aerosol size distribution. The algorithm uses the power profile data obtained from Lidar at the City University of New York (CUNY). The aerosol optical thickness at 20 km range has been validated using a Sun-photometer. The assembly of a typical Lidar system capable of providing the power profile at three standard wavelengths of 355, 532, and 1064 nm is elaborated upon, by actually detailing the Lidar system under construction at the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez, as one of several Lidars to be established in the Caribbean.
