Ammonia phase PARtitioning and Transport-lite (APART-lite)
No full textAmmonia (NH 3 ) is receiving significant increased attention nationally (and internationally) because it is an unregulated air pollutant that contributes to fine particle formation and nitrogen deposition. However, our observations of the atmospheric sources, sinks, and phase partitioning of NH 3 is limited compared to other major anthropogenic pollutants. In contrast to declining emissions of nitrogen oxides (NO x ) from combustion sources, the emissions of NH 3 from fertilizer applications and livestock production have grown in the U.S. Livestock are also large sources of CH 4 , a potent greenhouse gas.This dataset includes test flight data used to track agriculturally impacted air masses in-situ using the University of Wyoming King Air (UWKA) research aircraft. The data was used in a funded NSF proposal to work in the Colorado Front Range since there are large emissions sources of NH 3 and CH 4 from concentrated animal feeding operations in northeastern Colorado

Mid Latitude | University of Wyoming Stratospheric Aerosol Measurements
No full textThe globally distributed stratospheric aerosol are a constant but highly variable component of the Earth’s atmosphere. They impact climate through their albedo and ozone through heterogeneous chemistry. For these reasons they must be considered in all climate prediction models, and there are a host of measurement platforms to characterize these aerosol. Their optical properties have been measured from satellites, since the late 1970s, while surface based lidar measurements have been completed regularly at a handful of locations since the mid 1970s. The first measurements, however, were completed using in situ instruments deployed on balloons and aircraft in the 1960s. In contrast to the satellite and lidar measurements which provide extinction or backscatter, the in situ measurements provide size distributions, and thus the only direct path for deriving the microphysical parameters required by the global models such as aerosol surface area, volume, and cross section. The longest continuous record of in situ stratospheric aerosol measurements has been completed at Laramie, Wyoming, 1971-2020, comprising nearly 400 individual balloon flights. The measurements from these flights since 1989 are contained in this digital archive. In addition to the flights from Laramie there are over 100 flights from McMurdo Station, Antarctica, 45 flights from Kiruna, Sweden, and a handful of flights from 13 other locations throughout the world stretching from 45˚S to 68˚N. The measurements from Laramie from 1971 – 1988 are available on the data base of the Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change, https://ndacc.larc.nasa.gov/stations/laramie-wy-united-states.
This record includes the following Mid Latitude datasets:
/Aerosol_InSitu_Meas/US_Laramie_41N_105W_1989-2020/
/Aerosol_InSitu_Meas/US_Boulder_40N_105W_2019/
/Aerosol_InSitu_Meas/FR_Gap_45N_6E_1996_1997/
/Aerosol_InSitu_Meas/FR_AirLaDour_44N_0W_1995/
/Aerosol_InSitu_Meas/NZ_Lauder_45S_170E_1991-2001/
Within each of these directories are the following subdirectories/folders:
Nr_Full_Profile - Sounding files for aerosol size and number concentration. The file name, e.g. 20080622_WY_WOPC_ATA6m.ASC, indicates the date (yyyymmdd) and location, MM=McMurdo, WY=Laramie, the instrument name (e.g. WOPC_ATA6m). The file extension indicates the vertical resolution, .ASC, implies full data , or an average, e.g. .500m for a 500 m average. These differences in the vertical averaging are separated into separate subfolders. The files include measurements from the surface to balloon burst. All files include general and specific metadata. For the Laramie measurements, where three different instruments (Dust, WOPC, WLPC) have been used, the measurements are further divided into instrument folders.
SizeDist_Stratosphere - Lognormal size distributions (either unimodal or bimodal) at the vertical resolution indicated in the file name. The file names are somewhat long and include the name of the source file for the measurements, including the vertical resolution, the altitude at which the size distributions begin (typically the tropopause), and "_Srs_ce" which indicates the fit was completed with the new fitting algorithm which accounts for the instrument counting efficiency at each channel size. All files include general and specific metadata. For the Laramie measurements, where three different instruments (Dust, WOPC, WLPC) have been used, the measurements are further divided into instrument folders. IDL.SAV files are included in each folder for the Laramie measurements. Some folders contain post script files for quick looks at the data.
