In April 1986, during passage of the SAGE I satellite, the first simultaneous measurements of the atmospheric backscattering coefficient beta (pi, 10.6 microns) were made with an airborne CO2 lidar. Individual ratios of beta and the SAGE II extinction sigma (1.02 micron) are in reasonable accord with previously calculated values. The trend with height shows a distinctly nonlinear relation, which is probably attributable to steadily changing size distributions of aerosols.
