Atmospheric hydrocarbons as tracers for climate change, air transport, and oxidation chemistry in the Arctic, GEOSummit, Greenland
This study is a contribution to the Arctic Observing Network (AON). It will undertake 4 years of continuous measurements of atmospheric methane, and non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC; ethane, ethyne, propane, iso-butane, n-butane, iso-pentane, n-pentane, benzene, toluene) at the Greenland Environmental...
