Abstract

Particle size distributions measured using a custom scanning mobility analyzer (SMPS) and a TSI, Inc. aerodynamic particle sizer (APS). The size distributions measured with the two instruments were merged during data inversion to produce a single distribution spanning a diameter range from approximately 19 nanometers to 15 micrometers. Size-dependent cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity measured with a CCN counter operated in parallel to the condensation particle counter in the SMPS are reported separately. The measurements were made from the Baylor University/University of Houston Mobile Air Quality Laboratory (MAQL) between July 5 and August 30, 2022 during the TRACER-MAP project. The trailer moved between five sites in the Houston regions as follows: Aldine: 7/5-7/8, 7/21-7/26, 8/15-8/24 University of Houston: 7/8-7/16, 8/8-8/15 San Jacinto monument: 7/16-7/21 Jones State Forest: 7/26-8/1; 8/24-8/30 AMF site in La Porte: 8/1-8/8

Particle size distributions from TRACER-UFI

Dataset Collins, Don ; Du, Xuanlin

Particle size distributions using a custom-built SMPS. The measurements were made at the AMF-1 site in La Porte, TX between July 15, 2022 and August 30, 2022. The SMPS alternated between sampling ambient air and that in the portable Captive Aerosol Growth and Evolution (CAGE) chamber. The distributions from those two sources are separated.
TRACER-MAP AMS Measurement

Dataset Chao, Chun-Ying ; Griffin, Robert ; Guo, Fangzhou ; ...

Aerosol composition was measured by using the high resolution time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (HR ToF-AMS). The data were collected at five different sites (AMF1, Aldine, University of Houston (UH), Jones Forest (JF), San Jacinto Battleground (BG)) from July to August, 2022. Dataset includes time series of five species of aerosol composition: Organic, sulfate (SO4), nitrate (NO3), ammonium (NH4), chlorine (Chl)
Aerodynamic diameter particle size distributions for the AGINSGP experiment

Dataset Burrows, Susannah ; Cornwell, Gavin

Aerodynamic size distributions were collected by the APS 3321 (TSI Inc.) in the guest instrument facility at ARM’s Southern Great Plains site, during the AGINSGP field campaign. The APS accelerates particle through an orifice and uses two overlapping laser beams to measure the time-of-flights for particles. The aerodynamic diameter controls how quickly a particle will accelerate, with larger particles accelerating more slowly due to their greater inertia. The APS measures particle size distributions from 0.542 to 19.81 µm. Size distributions are averaged to their 1 minute averages. Air was drawn into the GIF through custom aluminum stack inlets (6” innermore »« less
Trace Gases, Meteorological Parameters, and GPS data for TRACER-MAP

Dataset Yoon, Subin ; Flynn, James ; Alvarez, Sergio

This dataset includes trace gas, meteorological, and GPS measurements made on Mobile Air Quality Laboratory 2 (MAQL2) for the TRACER-MAP sampling campaign. Trace gas measurements include nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), reactive nitrogen compounds (NOy), ozone (O3), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and carbon monoxide (CO). All trace gases are in units of ppbv, excluding CO which is in ppmv. The dataset also includes the photolysis rate of NO2 (jNO2), latitude and longitude, wind speed (WS), wind direction (WD), ambient relative humidity (RH), ambient pressure (press), and ambient temperature (temp). Units for trace gases are in parts per billion (ppbv), latitudemore »« less
