Abstract
From a data set collected during the MEDCAPHOT-TRACE field campaign, w e demonstrate that ozone fluxes can be determined with a shot-per-shot DIAL instrument operated in the UV spectral region. This is done by t he simultaneous reconstruction of ozone concentrations and of wind spe eds using the same sample of lidar returns. A correlation scheme is us ed for the wind velocity retrieval, in which the transport of the spat ial inhomogeneities of the aerosol backscattering coefficient along th e optical path of the system is analyzed.
