Mass Concentration of the Non-Refractory Component of Ambient Aerosol Particles in Air Data from Aerosol Chemical Species Monitor (ACSM) at Manchester Air Quality Site, 2019-present
Abstract
Mass Concentration of the Nitrate, Chloride, Sulphate, Ammonium and Organic Component of Ambient Aerosol Particles in Air measured at 7 metres above ground level by an Aerosol Chemical Species Monitor (ACSM) at the Manchester Air Quality Site (MAQS), from 2019 onwards, for the Integrated Research Observation System for Clean Air (OSCA) project.

| Access rules: |
Access to these data is available to any registered CEDA user. Please Login or Register for a CEDA account to gain access.
Use of these data is covered by the following licence(s): http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/version/3/ When using these data you must cite them correctly using the citation given on the CEDA Data Catalogue record. |
| Data lineage: |
Data is transfered directly from the instrument to the computer database, before being transferred to the general database, where it is processed using the Calibration data within the ACSM data. It is then divided into monthly files and data is flagged where data is suspect. |
| Data Quality: |
Data is calibrated for nitrate mass ionisation efficiencies (mIE) and the relative ionisation efficiencies (RIE) for ammonium and sulphate measurements. For full report on ACSM processing method see github file: https://github.com/naiwatson/OSCA/blob/main/Report%20on%20ACSM%20data.pdf .
