Abstract
A lidar complex designed at V.E. Zuev Institute of Atmospheric Optics SB RAS in Tomsk and used at the Siberian lidar station (56.5 N., 85.0 W) for the study of ozone dynamics near tropopause and for tracking global ozonosphere changes is presented. It allows measurement of vertical ozone distribution in the upper troposphere - stratosphere during sounding with the differential absorption method at wavelength pairs of 299/341 and 308/353 nm. The lidar complex covers altitudes from ~ 5 to ~ 45 km.
