aosacsm.b1

ACSM instrument measure mass loading (ug/m3) of non-refractory aerosol particles particularly organics, sulfate, chlorides, ammonium, and nitrates in real-time. The instrument is run autonomously at various ARM sites at time resolution equal to 30 minutes. Different data products are developed. The raw data (.itx and .asc) files are ingested to produce the.a0 product - the first netCDF file. These raw files are used by the mentor to calculate the mentor processed mass loadings. The .a0 files are used to develop the .b1 level product. The .b1 level data is further integrated with mentor processed data to produce .c0 level data product.
