Concept information
Preferred term
AML
Definition
- The AML operated out of McCall, ID (the location of a ground site as described below), during FIREX-AQ from 9 to 28 August 2019 and during WE-CAN from 11 to 28 August 2018. The AML was well-equipped for detailed gas- and aerosol-phase characterization as listed in Table 8 and included, among other instruments, highly speciated VOC measurements with a Vocus PTR-MS instrument and aerosol composition with an aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) operated with or without soot-particle mode. Aerodyne Research, Inc. trace gas monitors (using tunable infrared laser differential absorption spectroscopy, TILDAS) measured select trace gases including the fire tracer hydrogen cyanide (HCN) and ethane (C2H6). The AML also hosted a number of guest instruments run by external collaborators, also listed in the table below. The goal of the AML was to link the aircraft measurements to the ground by comparing EFs, understanding smoldering versus flaming emissions in close range of the fires, measure the air quality and the nighttime exposure in smoke-filled valleys, and look at plume aging.
