Monitoring of Atmospheric Particles

Description

Particle data from Canadian and U.S. ground-based monitoring networks from 1982 forward include the following: - Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD); - Aerosol Size Distribution; - Aerosol Number; - Aerosol Chemical Composition; - Particulate Matter Mass; - Particulate Matter <= 2.5 microns (PM2.5); - Particulate Matter <= 10 microns (PM10); - Particulate Metals. For further information about Atmospheric Particles Data, see the Monitoring of Atmospheric Particles_Metadata.pdf file. These measurements help scientists understand the linkages between aerosol chemical composition, aerosol radiative properties, cloud formation and precipitation.
