The U.S. Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility’s aerosol counting, composition, extinction, and sizing system (ACCESS) includes a base module (9400), a filter sampler (9401), an advanced mixing condensation particle counter (MCPC, 9403), a miniaturized optical particle counter (MOPC, 9405), and a single-channel tricolor absorption photometer (STAP, 9406). This handbook describes the principles and operations of the single-channel tricolor absorption photometer, Model 9406.
