OZONE-AIR

SCILLA ozone (O3) airborne data

PI

Purpose

Ozone mixing ratios in ppb are measured using a Teledyne API Model T400U.  The analyzer uses UV absorption at 254 nm to determine O3 concentration.  Sampled air was pulled from above the Naval Postgraduate School’s (NPS) Twin Otter aircraft through a rear-facing, ¼” OD PFA Teflon tube. The sample stream was split between several other gas analyzers (CO, NOx, and H2O) and an oxidation flow reactor. The data were recorded at 0.1 Hz.
