Isoprene and DMS concentration measurements in the Faroe Islands in summer-autumn 2020

This dataset contains the time series of isoprene and dimethyl sulfate (DMS) concentrations measured in the Faroe Islands from June to October 2020 as part of the the NERC-funded Shipping Emissions in the Arctic and North Atlantic atmosphere (SEANA) project.

The data was collected using two iDirac gas chromatographs (one for isoprene, one for DMS), deployed at the Havnardalur remote air quality station (62.017036°N, 6.857356 °W, 160 m a.s.l.), run by the Faroese Environment Agency on the island of Streymoy, the largest of the Faroe Islands.

Isoprene and DMS represent two of the largest natural emissions of volatile organic compounds into the atmosphere, with direct effects on regional atmospheric composition and climate.

This data is openly accessible for research purposes. Please do contact the authors if you plan to use this data for publications.
