Development of an automated high-temperature valveless injection system for online gas chromatographyAtmospheric Measurement Techniques - Tập 7 Số 12 - Trang 4431-4444
Nathan M. Kreisberg, David R. Worton, Yunliang Zhao, Gabriel Isaacman‐VanWertz, A. H. Goldstein, Susanne V. Hering
Abstract. A reliable method of sample introduction is presented for online gas chromatography with a special application to in situ field portable atmospheric sampling instruments. A traditional multi-port valve is replaced with a valveless sample introduction interface that offers the advantage of long-term reliability and stable sample transfer efficiency. An engineering design model is ...... hiện toàn bộ
A versatile and reproducible automatic injection system for liquid standard introduction: application to in-situ calibrationAtmospheric Measurement Techniques - Tập 4 Số 9 - Trang 1937-1942

Abstract. The quantitation of trace organic compounds in ambient organic aerosol is difficult due to the chemical complexity of these mixtures, but is needed to provide insight into their sources and formation processes. Compound-level characterization of organic aerosols is typically performed through sample collection followed by gas or liquid chromatography. With these methods, introduc...... hiện toàn bộ
Modeled source apportionment of black carbon particles coated with a light-scattering shellAtmospheric Measurement Techniques - Tập 14 Số 5 - Trang 3707-3719
Aki Virkkula
Abstract. The Aethalometer model has been used widely for estimating the contributions
of fossil fuel emissions and biomass burning to equivalent black carbon
(eBC). The calculation is based on measured absorption Ångström
exponents (αabs). The interpretation of αabs is
ambiguous since it is well known that it not only depends on the dominant absorber but also on the size and internal stru...... hiện toàn bộ
Linear estimation of particle bulk parameters from multi-wavelength lidar measurementsAtmospheric Measurement Techniques - Tập 5 Số 5 - Trang 1135-1145

Abstract. An algorithm for linear estimation of aerosol bulk properties such as particle volume, effective radius and complex refractive index from multiwavelength lidar measurements is presented. The approach uses the fact that the total aerosol concentration can well be approximated as a linear combination of aerosol characteristics measured by multi-wavelength lidar. Therefore, the aero...... hiện toàn bộ
Information content and sensitivity of the 3<i>β</i> + 2<i>α</i> lidar measurement system for aerosol microphysical retrievalsAtmospheric Measurement Techniques - Tập 9 Số 11 - Trang 5555-5574

Abstract. There is considerable interest in retrieving profiles of aerosol effective radius, total number concentration, and complex refractive index from lidar measurements of extinction and backscatter at several wavelengths. The combination of three backscatter channels plus two extinction channels (3β + 2α) is particularly important since it is believed to be the minimum configuration ...... hiện toàn bộ
Aerosol classification using airborne High Spectral Resolution Lidar measurements – methodology and examplesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques - Tập 5 Số 1 - Trang 73-98

Abstract. The NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) airborne High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL) on the NASA B200 aircraft has acquired extensive datasets of aerosol extinction (532 nm), aerosol optical depth (AOD) (532 nm), backscatter (532 and 1064 nm), and depolarization (532 and 1064 nm) profiles during 18 field missions that have been conducted over North America since 2006.
