An industrial XeCl laser was modified for linearly polarized single-line operation at an average power of about 180 W. This high power and a 1.5 m diameter receiver allow us to extend the operating range for water-vapour sounding to 20 km for a measurement time of just 1 h, at an uncertainty level of the mixing ratio of 1 to 2 ppm. This was achieved for a vertical resolution varied between just 0.2 and 0.6 km in the stratosphere. The lidar was successfully validated with a balloon-borne cryogenic frost-point hygrometer (CFH). In addition, temperature measurements up to altitudes of around 87 km were demonstrated for 1 h of signal averaging. The system has been calibrated with the DIAL, the CFH and radiosondes.}, cin = {IEK-7}, ddc = {550}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)IEK-7-20101013}, pnm = {211 - Die Atmosphäre im globalen Wandel (POF4-211) / 2B1 - MOSES (CTA - CCA) (POF4-2B1)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF4-211 / G:(DE-HGF)POF4-2B1}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000613896600001}, doi = {10.5194/amt-14-531-2021}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/890274}, }
