Abstract

The first papers devoted to atmospheric research by means of lasers appeared just after their discovery. Two circumstances were decisive in this situation. First, the development of new facilities for remotely measuring atmospheric parameters was urgently needed. Secondly, lasers were found to be very promising for use in atmospheric research.
