Size and composition measurements of background aerosol and new particle growth in a Finnish forest during QUEST 2 using an Aerodyne Aerosol Mass Spectrometer
The study of the growth of nucleation-mode particles is important, as this prevents their loss through diffusion and allows them to reach sizes where they may become effective cloud condensation nuclei. Hyytiälä, a forested site in southern Finland, frequently experiences particle nucleation events during the spring and autumn, where particles first appear during the morning and continue to gro...
متن کاملMeasurement of Ambient Aerosol Composition During the PMTACS-NY 2001 Using an Aerosol Mass Spectrometer. Part I: Mass Concentrations
Semicontinuous ambient aerosol composition measurements performed during the PMTACS-NY Summer 2001 field campaign in Queens/New York with an aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS, developed by Aerodyne Research Inc.) are described. The measurements include 10 min averages of the nonrefractory sulfate, nitrate, ammonium, chloride, and organic mass concentrations in the particle size range of 50 to appr...
متن کاملPreparation of Graphite Targets in the Gliwice Radiocarbon Laboratory for Ams
A line for preparation of graphite targets for accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) radiocarbon dating has been built in the Gliwice 14C Laboratory. The AMS 14C measurements of our targets are performed in the Leibniz-Labor für Altersbestimmung, Kiel, Germany. The quality of our line has been tested in two series of AMS 14C measurements of background and Ox-II standard samples and by measurement...
متن کاملInvestigation of mineralogical and microstructural changes of Chah Zard granites (East of Jandagh) during mylonitization: using anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility method (AMS)
Chah Zard granitoid pluton with 535.4±3.2 Ma age (U-Pb zircon method, carried on the Zircon) intruded into Jandagh –Arousan metamorphic complex, and strongly mylonitized during later events. For the first time, Chah Zard granitoid pluton investigated by anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) method. Mean magnetic susceptibility (Km) of biotite granites (the main constitute of Chah Zard gra...
متن کاملChemical speciation of organic aerosol during the International Consortium for Atmospheric Research on Transport and Transformation 2004: Results from in situ measurements
[1] We report the first ever hourly in situ measurements of speciated organic aerosol composition. Measurements were made during July and August 2004 at Chebogue Point, Nova Scotia, using a novel thermal desorption aerosol GC/MS-FID (TAG) instrument as part of the International Consortium for Atmospheric Research on Transport and Transformation (ICARTT). Hourly time resolution measurements of o...
