Aerosol measurements during OASIS Barrow field intensive Spring 2009 https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/106.360 Summary The NCAR "Particle Size Distribution" (PSD) instrument consists of three instruments that measure the size distribution of the ambient aerosol from 3 nm to 2 microns. General specifications for the instrument during Ocean-Atmosphere-Sea Ice-Snowpack (OASIS) are as follows: Size range: ~3.85 nm to 2 micron Number of diameter bins: 75 Time resolution: 5 min Please see included documentation for full details.
