ATom: L2 In Situ Measurements from Single Particle Soot Photometer (SP2)
A new dataset from the Atmospheric Tomography Mission (ATom) provides refractory black carbon mass concentration at one-second resolution measured by the Single Particle Soot Photometer (SP2) instrument during airborne campaigns conducted by NASA's Atmospheric Tomography (ATom) mission. The SP2 is a laser-induced incandescence instrument primarily used for measuring the black carbon mass content of individual particles.
ATom is a NASA Earth Venture Suborbital-2 mission to study the impact of human-produced air pollution on greenhouse gases and on chemically reactive gases in the atmosphere. Around-the-world flights were conducted in four campaigns between 2016 and 2018. Get data from ATom.
