Dataset
Longterm observations of volatile organic compounds from the NCAS Dual Column Gas Chromatograph- Flame Ionization Detector unit 4 deployed at the Cabo Verde Atmospheric Observatory, v1.0 (20190515-onwards)
Abstract
Observations of volatile organic compound concentrations from the National Centre for Atmospheric Science Atmospheric Measurement and Observation Facility's Dual Column Gas Chromatograph- Flame Ionization Detector unit 4 (ncas-dc-gc-fid-4) deployed at the Cabo Verde Atmospheric Observatory from May 2019. These observations were taken as part of longterm observations at the site.
Data products from this deployment include: dimethyl sulfide concentrations.
