Measurement of tropospheric aerosols

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

Description

The dataset contains twelve samples (of about five days each) of tropospheric aerosol less than < 3 micrometer fractionated into five particle diameter ranges (Dp: 2.84, 2.04, 1.4, 0.8, 0.441 micrometer) and a backup filter collecting all particles < 0.41 micrometer, and samples of all precipitation during the sampled period. They were taken at King George Island, Antarctica, from January 29 to March 27, 1995, during the XXXII Chilean Scientific Antarctic Expedition.

The sampler was located near the sea at the top of a 60-m high hill. Chemical analysis of the samples includes quantification of the species present in the soluble and insoluble fractions. In the last case, an acid digestion in a microwave furnace was used.
