What Does ALEX Stand For?

ALEX stands for Aerosol LIDAR Experiment

ALEX, or Aerosol LIDAR Experiment, is a scientific initiative focused on the study and analysis of aerosol particles in the atmosphere using Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) technology. By employing advanced LIDAR systems, ALEX aims to enhance our understanding of aerosol distribution, composition, and their impact on climate, air quality, and atmospheric processes. The findings from this experiment contribute to improved environmental monitoring, predictive modeling, and effective policy-making for air quality management.
