Fluorescent Aerosol and Meteorological data over the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas, July 2017 (NCEI Accession 0277794)

browse graphicPreview graphic
Aircraft flights over the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas during the last half of July, 2017 collected fluorescent aerosol and meteorological data using a WIBS-4A (Droplet Measurement Technologies) instrument which measured aerosol fluorescence and an AIMMS (Aventech Research) instrument which recorded positional and meteorological variables. Text files of data recorded during flight are included. WIBS data provides single particle optical size and fluorescence characteristics for all particles sampled that were larger than ~0.5 microns in diameter. AIMMS data provides location and meteorological data used in the analysis.
