| 137 Please note once again that the polarization channels are described in terms of transmitted and reflected signals. This means that according to different lidar instrumental configurations, the transmitted or the reflected channel can contain total, perpendicular or parallel polarized signals. | 137 Please note once again that the polarization channels are described in terms of transmitted and reflected signals.
