Abstract:

Atmospheric aerosol measurements were conducted at the Melpitz observatory, Germany. The data was collected during 2012 to 2016, measured by Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitor (ACSM) and Multi-angle absorption photometer (MAAP).

Keyword(s):

Aerosol chemistry; Cloud Concensation Nuclei; Particle Number Size Distribution (PNSD)

Date/Time Start: 2012-06-04T00:00:00 * Date/Time End: 2016-10-31T23:00:00

Event(s):

Melpitz_obs * Latitude: 51.530000 * Longitude: 12.930000 * Method/Device: Research station (RS)

Comment:

Negative values are a within the measurement uncertainty and can be interpreted as 'below detection limit'.
