Abstract :
Summary form only. Recently the problem of metrological provision of laser monitoring of atmospheric gases has been topical. In the present work the technique of detection of atmosphere pollutants concentration by the use of a LIDAR/DIAL system based on a frequency doubled TEA CO/sub 2/ laser is given. For calibration of this technique the detection of water vapour is used.
