Atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) is the primary anthropogenic driver of climate change, accounting for more than half of the total effective radiative forcing (ERF). Active remote-sensing technique using differential absorption Lidar (DIAL) is recognized as the most promising remote sensing means...
