ARM Aerial Facility (AAF) Suflur Dioxide Monitor (aafso2)

Browse Data

The sulfur dioxide analyzer measures sulfur dioxide based on absorbance of ultraviolet (UV) light at one wavelength by SO2 molecules that then decay to a lower energy state by emitting UV light at a longer wavelength. The instrument sampled from a trace gas inlet on the starboard side of the fuselage.
