Description	A series of surface-based lidar measurements was made in support of reentry tests at Kwajalein. The measurement periods were conducted during May to June, Aug., Dec. 1973, and Mar. to Apr. 1974. The lidar used was the SRI Mark IX, a ruby lidar installed within a van complete with its own power supplies, azimuth and elevation scanning capabilities and real time digital data recording, processing, and display systems. The digital data system was used to estimate cirrus cloud equivalent ice water content as the cloud was being observed. Other supporting equipment included an instrumented WB-57 aircraft used for sampling cirrus cloud ice crystals. An altitude time intensity modulated video display of cirrus cloud structure observed on 17 Dec. 1973 is presented.
