Tropospheric Chemistry: Measurements

Data Format

ICARTT File Format Standards (v2 updated Jan. 2017)

The ICARTT format was created to standardize data files to facilitate data exchange and to promote ease of use of these files. This format includes information for headers which describe the data presented (meta data), as well as the actual data. This format has been adopted and developed by the Tropospheric Chemistry research group and it is expected that PIs participating in major field studies will use this format. More information
