Abstract

The original data were collected during the field campaign of “Turbulent layers promoting New Particle Formation” experiment (NPFTURBULENCE; https://www.arm.gov/research/campaigns/aaf2024npfturbulence) over the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Southern Great Plains (SGP) Atmospheric Observatory (https://www.arm.gov/capabilities/observatories/sgp ) in north-central Oklahoma. The ARM Aerial Facility ArcticShark uncrewed aerial system (UAS) was based at Blackwell–Tonkawa Municipal Airport (IATA: BWL, ICAO: KBKN, FAA LID: BKN, 36.74475° N, 97.34918° W, 313.9 m MSL), for the field campaign from May 5 through May 29, 2024. The ArcticShark UAS performed 11 flights, including 10 research flights over the Central Facility of the ARM SGP to measure atmospheric state, turbulence, surface IT temperature and imagery, aerosol number concentration and size distribution. The current data set presents Best Estimate Aerosol Size Distribution: a merged aerosol size distribution composed of the data from 2 sensors: miniaturized Scanning Electrical Mobility Sizer (mSEMS) and Portable Optical Particle Spectrometer (POPS). The mSEMS data were interpolated to 1 second from “native” time resolution of about 15 second to match the other probe. The POPS data were converted from equivalent optical size into geometric size using value of aerosol refractive index of 1.477 from the HISCALE field campaign (same geographical area, altitudes, and time of year; http://www.arm.gov/campaigns/aaf2016hiscale ).
