    These plots are for the second aerosol system deployed at Storm Peak by NOAA/GMD. This system was deployed to study differences in aerosol properties for two different aerosol inlets. It is similar to the system on long-term loan from DOE's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Plots for the primary long-term system can be seen here.

    Atmospheric Properties

    These plots are designed to provide a quick look at the measured aerosol properties. They display raw unedited data, but known corrections for instrument errors have been applied.
