ORCAS Advanced Whole Air Sampler (AWAS) Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/490.027

Summary
This data set contains Advanced Whole Air Sampler (AWAS) data collected by the
NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER (Gulfstream-V High-performance Instrumented Airborne
Platform for Environmental Research) aircraft (Tail Number N677F) during the
ORCAS (O2/N2 Ratio and CO2 Airborne Southern Ocean Study) campaign. The AWAS
collects air samples in stainless steel canisters for later analysis for a
wide variety of trace gases. The analysis was conducted with a gas
chromatogaph/mass spectrometer/FID/ECD combination instrument to measure a
range of chlorofluorocarbons, hydrochlorofluorocarbons, halomethanes and
haloethanes, C2-C8 non-methane hydrocarbons, C1 – C5 alkyl nitrates, and
selected sulfur compounds. Data are in ICARTT format, one file per research
flight.
