Scientific paper

Simultaneous measurements taken with an aerosol lidar and an ozone DIAL following the eruption of the Pinatubo volcano are reported. The ozone data are validated with ECC soundings to estimate the reliability of the correction method. Sensitivity tests on the choice of the optical parameters are performed to assess their effect on the retrieved ozone. Preliminary results obtained for the DIAL ozone profiles of strong aerosol layers indicate that corrections are possible even considering the uncertainties in the aerosol optical parameters. The retrieved ozone may change by approximately 10 percent depending on the choice of the aerosol optical parameters. Absolute difference between ECC and DIAL could not be completely explained in terms of uncertainty in those parameters.
