  1. A collaborative research effort by Montana State University and the National Center for Atmospheric Research has led to the development of a MicroPulse DIAL (MPD) instruments for water vapor profiling, aerosol profiling, boundary layer structure, and temperature profiling of the lower troposphere. The MPD instruments utilize a diode-laser-based instrument architecture, have demonstrated long-term autonomous network operation, and have the potential to address the needs of the science community for networkable ground-based thermodynamic profilers that can provide data in near real time. In this chapter, the recent improvements to the temperature retrieval using the MPD instruments are discussed and initial results from the improved temperature retrieval algorithm are presented.
