Aircraft measurements of single particle chemical composition over the Southern Baltic Sea during the BALTIC'15 campaign in 2015

During the BALTIC'15 campaign in August 2015 over the Southern Baltic Sea, measurements of chemical composition and vacuum-aerodynamic diameter of individual aerosol particles were conducted by the Aircraft-based laser ablation aerosol mass spectrometer (ALABAMA) operated by the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry (Particle Chemistry Department). Measurements were performed on board the Alfred Wegener Institute research aircraft Polar 5.

Four research flights were conducted: - Scientific flight 1 (SF1) on August 26, 2015 - Scientific flight 2 (SF2) on August 28, 2015 - Scientific flight 3 (SF3) on August 28, 2015 - Scientific flight 5 (SF4) on August 30, 2015. The data set contains sampling time, location, identified particle types, and particle size (if available).

(2019) or contact the authors: Franziska Köllner (f.koellner@mpic.de) and Johannes Schneider (Johannes.schneider@mpic.de).
