Description
Summary:Dataset abstract This data set contains the time series of single particle data, measured by the wideband integrated bioaerosol sensor (WIBS-4, University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, UK), during the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE), which was conducted between 20th of December 2016 and 19th of March 2017. WIBS provides aerosol optical diameter (5 μm - 14 μm), asymmetry factor and fluorescent signals on three different channels. WIBS measures single aerosol particles at a sampling rate of 125 Hz. More technical details about WIBS could be found in Kaye et al. (2005).
