CARIBIC Measurements
• Trace gases– In situ
• CO
• O3
• NOy
• H2O
• Acetone, Methanol
– Air samples• GHG• Halogenated compounds• Isotopes
– Special• O2
• DOAS (NO2, O3, BrO, HCHO)
• Aerosol– Size distribution
• 3 CPC (cutoff 4, 12, 18 nm)• OPC (100 nm – 5 µm)
– Samples (100 nm – 2µm)• Quantitative analyses
– PIXE (S and heavier)
– PESA (H(?), C, N, O)
• Single particle analyses– TEM
– EFTEM
• Meteorology (trajectories etc.)
Results – Particulate Sulfur
First PESA Results
Results – Single Particle Analysis
TEM and EFTEM on stratospheric particle
Plans
• Short term (this year)– Develop H analysis
– Undertake large number of H, C, N, O analyses
– Sulfur climatology
– Influence of deep convection on UT/LS aerosol
• Longer term– Methods to classify the
carbonaceous component
– Climatology H, C, N, O
– Production of carbonaceous aerosol in the stratosphere
– Revisit single particle analysis
