High-resolution, real-time measurements of non-refractory aerosol composition, including nitrate, ammonium, sulfate, organics, chloride, and sea salt, were collected during the RV Investigator voyage IN2024_V01. The voyage, titled Multidisciplinary Investigations of the Southern Ocean (MISO), was conducted from 2 January to 5 March 2024, departing Hobart and returning to Fremantle. Data were captured by a Time-of-Flight Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitor (ToF-ACSM) and aggregated by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
Use Cases
