Short summary
This paper presents a comprehensive calibration procedure for the first spaceborne high-spectral-resolution lidar with an iodine vapor absorption filter Aerosol and Carbon Detection Lidar (ACDL) on board DQ-1 by utilizing nighttime 532 nm multi-channel data. We analyzed the error sources of the multi-channel calibration coefficients and assessed the results. The results indicate that the uncertainty of the clear-air scattering ratio was within the anticipated range of 7.9 %.
