Arctic Black Carbon Aerosol Deposition Study North Slope of Alaska 2020- UHSAS Measurements

Particles are removed from the atmosphere through both wet and dry deposition. These processes are poorly understood, though they constitute important uncertainties in climate and air quality models. This project aims to use observational constraints on particle fluxes to improve model representations of dry deposition. Within this data set, we measured fluxes of size resolved particles with an ultrahigh sensitivity aerosol spectrometer (UHSAS) at the ARM facility’s North Slope Alaska site. Measurements were made at the meteorological tower between 9 Sept and 25 Oct 2021. This site is a coastal tundra location and received snow during the project.
