Horizon2020 [FORCeS] Puijo SMEAR-IV campaign data

A 3 month long ambient measurement campaign at SMEAR-IV station (station code FI0063R; Kuopio, Finland; https://www.atm.helsinki.fi/smear/?page_id=85) with complimenting ground station measurements. Semi-urban environment. SMEAR-IV station measurement height is at 80m above ground.

Measured quantities at SMEAR-IV: meteorological parameters, atmosheric gasses (O3, NOx, SO2), black carbon (MAAP-5012 Thermo Fischer Scientific), particle number concentration and size distribution data (DMPS). SMEAR-IV station has a switching double inlet set-up: whole air (ambient aerosol smaller than 50 um at ambient conditions), and interstitial (ambient aerosol smaller than 1 um at ambient conditions) which was utilised in black carbon measurements. 

Measured quantities at ground station: meteorological parameters, atmosheric gases (O3, NOx, SO2), particle number concentration and size distribution data (SMPS, TSI Inc.), and aerosol bulk proprties (AMS, Aerodyne Reserach Inc.). 

Additional data measured at the SMEAR-IV station: cloud condesation nuclei activation diameter (CCN counter, Droplet Measurement Technologies), aerosol particle bulk composition and properties (ACSM, Aerodyne Reserach Inc.), more detailed particle composition (FIGAERO-CIMS, Aerodyne Reserach Inc.), cloud droplet concentration, and visibility. 

Additional data measured at the ground station: cloud condesation nuclei activation diameter (CCN counter, Droplet Measurement Technologies), more detailed particle composition (FIGAERO-CIMS, Aerodyne Reserach Inc.), small oxygenated compounds, polar molecules, BTEX, PAHs, other aromatics (VOCUS, Aerodyne Reserach Inc.).
