Trace Organic Gas Analyzer (TOGA) VOC Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/483.008

Summary
This dataset contains trace organic gas analyzer (TOGA) data taken aboard the
NSF/NCAR C-130 aircraft (Tail Number N130AR) during the Wintertime
Investigation of Transport, Emission, and Reactivity (WINTER) project.
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) measured include hydrocarbons, oxygenates,
halocarbons, nitrogen and sulfer compounds, isoprene, methacrolein, methyl
vinyl ketone (MVK), and acetone. Please see the header portion of the data
files for specific VOCs measured, measurement accuracies, and detection
limits.

  2.0: This version contains small adjustments to alpha-pinene, as well as full
beta-pinene, camphene and limonene+3-carene data for the entire project,
primarily by converting some of the -999 data (no data available) to
-888 data (below detection limit), but in a few cases adding
concentrations that were previously not reported.
