 <abstract>An atmospheric monitoring system has installed at Black Rock Mesa in the Utah
desert to study the properties of atmosphere using a LIDAR(Light Detection And
Ranging) system and an infra-red(IR) camera for cosmic rays experiment. The aims of
atmospheric monitoring are to calibrate observed cosmic ray's energy and to determine
detectable region of the fluorescence detectors. For these reasons, the atmospheric
extinction coefficient and  the cloudiness should be determined precisely as possible. 
  The LIDAR system consisits of a laser device and a light receiver with a photo
multiplier tube(PMT) mounting on a steerable base. The laser emits pulse lights
successively into the atmoshere and the receiver detects scattered faint lights by
the PMT. To determine the atmospheric extinction coefficient, a large amount of data
has been
acquired using LIDAR system at Black Rock Mesa commencing from July 2005.A lot of
data is analized by means of so-called the slope method and/or the Klett's method
after due consideration of atmospheric pressure effect. 
A result consistent with a calculation of the Rayleigh scattering is obtained for the
vertical extinction coefficient above an altitude of several kilometres in a calm
weather. It is also found that the one-dimentional atmospheric density model is
reasonable assumption on a limitative condition in the Utah desert. 
  The current results from the atmospheric monitoring with the LIDAR and the IR
camera will be presented in full detail.</abstract>
