Abstract:
The DOE Gulfstream G-1 aircraft participated in the International
Consortium for Atmospheric Research on Transport and Transformation
(ICARTT), NorthEast Aerosol eXperiment (NEAX) in July and August,
2004.
Research Areas: Process level studies of aerosol/oxidant formation in
plumes from various sources.
Characterization of regional differences in aerosol distribution,
composition,and
... microphysics in relation to aerosol sources and
processing history.
Characterization of the contribution of mid-western sources of
aerosols, oxidants and their precursors to O3/aerosol burdens in the
Northeast US.
The G-1 operated within about 300 nautical miles from Latrobe, PA from
about July 19th - August 15th, 2004. There were a total of 13 flights
on twelve different days. Data are reported for both 1 second and
averaged 10 second sampling intervals.
This research was performed under sponsorship of the U.S. DOE under
contracts DE-AC02-98CH10886.
