ORCAS Quantum Cascade Laser Spectrometer (QCLS) CO2 https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/490.016 Summary The Quantum Cascade Laser Spectrometer (QCLS) CO2 measured CO2 concentrations in situ aboard the NSF/NCAR GV during the O2/N2 Ratio and CO2 Airborne Southern Ocean (ORCAS) Study. This dataset contains CO2_QCLS data in NASA Ames format collected during ORCAS. Identifiers * Local archive identifier: 490.016 * doi:10.5065/D65719FT https://doi.org/10.5065/D65719FT Versions 0.1: Field-phase data. During the QA/QC process indications of a leak on RF17 were picked up so currently it is not thought we can recover and report data for that flight. - Eric 0.2: QAQC data 1.0: Final release data. No changes from the previous version were required as qaqc data are appropriate for release. 1.1: This version contains an updated QCLS CO2 readme file that includes information on what flights are missing.
