ACSM-AIR
SCILLA mini-Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (mAMS) airborne data
PI
Purpose
Measurements of non-refractory, sub-micron aerosol composition, namely organic, sulfate, nitrate, chloride, and ammonium aerosols, by a mini- aerosol mass spectrometer (mAMS, Aerodyne Research, Inc.) are reported. The instrument sampled ambient air through 3 different inlets: unperturbed ambient air, a Counter-flow Virtual Impactor (CVI), and an oxidation flow reactor (OFR). Users should consult the Sampling Key for proper interpretation of the data.
