Marine Aerosol Physico-chemical Properties at Mace Head during late Summer 2015
Description
This dataset reports the results of in situ measurements of meteorological variables, aerosol chemical composition, particle number size distribution and ice nucleating particle (INP) number concentrations collected in late summer (August-September) 2015 at the Mace Head Research Station (53.33° N, 9.90 °W; 21m a.m.s.l; 300m from the waterline). Data from simultaneous measurements of size-scanned cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) can be accessed from the link: https://hal-meteofrance.archives-ouvertes.fr/meteo-01567780/file/MH_data_for_archive.zip. The dataset reports also satellite-retrieved sea surface chlorophyll-a concentration (CHL) data averaged over three selected oceanic regions in the North Atlantic Ocean domain, during the same period. This dataset is discussed in a manuscript titled "Linking Marine Biological Activity to Aerosol Chemical Composition and Cloud-Relevant Properties over the North Atlantic Ocean" by "Karam Mansour, Stefano Decesari, Maria Cristina Facchini, Franco Belosi, Marco Paglione, Silvia Sandrini, Marco Bellacicco, Salvatore Marullo, Rosalia Santoleri, Jurgita Ovadnevaite, Darius Ceburnis, Colin O'Dowd, Gregory Roberts, Kevin Sanchez, and Matteo Rinaldi", which is currently under review by Journal of Geophysical Research-Atmospheres.
