Abstract

A meteorological field campaign conducted at the Pentagon in Arlington, VA from mid April to mid May 2004, The Pentagon Shield 2004 Field Campaign, is discussed. Remote-sensing meteorological instruments were deployed to observe the boundary layer and monitor the transport and diffusion of an inert tracer, SF₆. released during the campaign's intensive observing periods. Pentagon shield also served as the first field test of the 1.54-μm Raman-shifted Eye-safe Aerosol Lidar (REAL), newly developed at NCAR. When the lower traposphere was thick with scatters, the REAL was able to observe flow features and structures in the boundary layer over 10 km away.
