Abstract

Observations collected during flight M257 on 23 October 2019 by the Clean Air instrument suite on board the Met Office Atmospheric Survey Aircraft (MOASA) for the MOASA Clean Air project.

This dataset contains in situ atmospheric composition measurements over Port Talbot, UK in a high density spatial mapping flight pattern.

This dataset contains in meteorological and situ atmospheric composition measurements (gaseous nitrogen dioxide, ozone, sulphur dioxide and fine mode (PM2.5) aerosol) over Port Talbot, UK in a high density spatial mapping flight pattern, as part of the Strategic Priorities Fund (SPF) Clean Air Programme Intense Observational Period. Quicklook plots are also included.

Full flight track and other MOASA flights can be seen via the CEDA Flight Finder tool linked to on this record.
