This paper describes an airborne lidar instrument for detecting OH, using the technique of laser-induced fluorescence. The detection limit is determined mainly by the shot noise of the solar background. For daytime measurements at 6100 m (20,000-ft) a detection limit of about 1¿106 OH/cm3 was obtained with a 2-hour acquisition time under favorable conditions.
