GitRichard-loa/boreal-LOA: BOREAL package for aerosol microphysical property retrieval from lidar measurements

The BOREAL (Basic algOrithm for REtrieval of Aerosol with Lidar) algorithm is developed by the Laboratoire d'Optique Atmosphérique, a joint research unit of the University of Lille and CNRS. This package retrieves particle volume size distribution (VSD) and complex refractive index (CRI = mR -imI) from lidar-derived extinction + backscattering (or + depolarisation) properties. Total volume concentration (Vt), effective radius (reff) and single-scattering albedo (SSA) are then calculated from the retrieved VSD and CRI. Please read the README.md file carefully before using the package.
