Optical particle counter measurement of marine aerosol hygroscopic growth
A technique is developed for the determination of the hygroscopic growth factor of dry particles with diameter between 0.3 and 0.6μm and is applied to measurements made during the second Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus experiment (DYCOMS-II). Two optical particle counters are utilized, one measures the aerosol size spectrum at ambient relative humidity and the other simultaneousl...
متن کاملInteractive comment on “ Optical particle counter measurement of marine aerosol hygroscopic growth ”
The authors make a valiant effort at extracting additional information about the properties of aerosol from measurements with optical particle counters (OPC), in particular the PCASP and the FSSP-300. In the end, the results are convincing and they have done a very nice job of constraining the uncertainties. The style of writing, however, is at times obtuse and difficult to understand. Examples...

متن کاملFinal Report for Instrumentation for Measurement of Aerosol Differential Hygroscopic Growth Rates
This DURIP equipment grant is in support of our ongoing grant exploring the interactions of marine aerosols with clouds and the relationship between aerosol size and composition, and aerosol hygroscopicity and cloud condensation nuclei activity (Award # N00014-97-1-0132). Hence, these long-term goals of the “parent grant” are also those of this grant. However, the DURIP itself is more sharply f...
متن کاملComparison between CARIBIC Aerosol Samples Analysed by Accelerator-Based Methods and Optical Particle Counter Measurements
Inter-comparison of results from two kinds of aerosol systems in the CARIBIC (Civil Aircraft for the Regular Investigation of the atmosphere Based on a Instrument Container) passenger aircraft based observatory, operating during intercontinental flights at 9–12 km altitude, is presented. Aerosol from the lowermost stratosphere (LMS), the extra-tropical upper troposphere (UT) and the tropical mi...
