North Atlantic Aerosols and Marine Ecosystems Study (NAAMES): Physical, optical, and chemical properties of atmospheric marine aerosols aboard WHOI R/V Atlantis in the western subarctic North Atlantic, 2015 to 2018 (NCEI Accession 0310822)
This dataset contains physical, optical, and chemical properties of atmospheric marine aerosols from four different cruises aboard WHO R/V Atlantis as part of the NAAMES project. The dates of the four cruises are as follows:
NAAMES-1 - 06 November to 29 November 2015
NAAMES-2 - 11 May to 03 June 2016
NAAMES-3 - 30 August to 23 September 2017
NAAMES-4 - 20 March to 12 April 2018
The data from each cruise is divided into multiple csv datasets, summarized as follows:
Main - Navigation, Meteorology, Scattering, and Absorption;
Chemistry - Aerosol species concentrations at varying particle diameters;
Radon - Radon Concentration;
CCN - Cloud Condensation Nuclei;
Size Distribution (APS) - Aerodynamic Particle Size Distribution;
Size Distribution (DMPS) - Differential Mobility Particle Size Distribution;
Size Distribution - Merged version of the APS and DMPS datasets
