Abstract
A description is given of a lidar system based on an excimer KrF laser with hydrogen and deuterium SRS converters, designed for measuring th e daytime and nighttime ozone concentrations at altitudes 0.3-5 km by a differential absorption method. An investigation of the evolution of the concentration of the tropospheric ozone over a period of 24 hours , and also over a longer period, demonstrated that the system can be u sed to monitor regularly the tropospheric ozone and its chemical trans formations.
