NAURU-99 Field Campaign: Physical, optical, and chemical properties of atmospheric marine aerosols aboard NOAA R/V Ronald H. Brown in the southwestern Pacific, 1999-06-14 to 1999-07-16 (NCEI Accession 0311261)
This dataset contains physical, optical, and chemical properties of atmospheric marine aerosols from aboard NOAA R/V Ronald H. Brown, collected 14 June to 16 July 1999 during the NAURU-99 field campaign.
The data is divided into five csv datasets, summarized as follows:
Main - Navigation, Meteorology, and Scattering;
Chemistry - Aerosol species concentrations at varying particle diameters;
AOD - Aerosol optical depth at varying wavelengths;
Size Distribution (APS) - Aerodynamic Particle Size Distribution;
Size Distribution (DMPS) - Differential Mobility Particle Size Distribution
