Macquarie Island DMS Measurements
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/11.20

Summary
This dataset consists of atmospheric concentrations of Dimethylsulfide (DMS)
samples taken at Macquarie Island by Hilton Swan (AGAL) during ACE-1. This DMS
data defines the start/stop times (UTC) for each sample and is reported as
ng/m3 and nmol/m3. Certain meteorological parameters were also recorded, from
the 1-minute average Automatic Weather System (AWS), at the start of each DMS
sample and these are also included in the dataset. Analytically the DMS
measurements were obtained following oxidant and moisture removal from the air
stream. Methylethyl sulphide was introduced with each sample as an internal
standard, and a pulsed PFD was used for the selective detection of DMS. The
data were processed and quality controlled during the ACE-1 field program, and
the instrumentation was comparatively compared with similar instrumentation
operating at Cape Grim before and after ACE-1.
