Short summary
A Mie–Raman–fluorescence lidar is used to analyze possible quenching of aerosol fluorescence during hygroscopic growth. The well-mixed planetary boundary layer serves as a convenient environment for such studies, since the fluorescence backscattering coefficient should remain constant in the absence of water uptake effects. However, during some episodes, we observed a systematic decrease in fluorescence backscattering, which likely indicates fluorescence quenching.
