BACS: Drone Aerosol Data

Summary

This dataset contains processed airborne aerosol measurements collected by Alphasense OPC-N3 low-cost sensors mounted on DJI M-600 drones during the BioAerosols and Convective Storms (BACS) field campaigns. Flights occurred surrounding cold pool passage and other meteorological events to examine changes in aerosol vertical profiles. See the readme for more information.
