Differential Aerosol Sizing and Hygroscopicity Spectrometer Probe (DASH-SP)

Status

Status: 
Operational
Operated By: 
PI

Schematic of the DASH-SP summarizing the transport path of sampled aerosol.

The DASH-SP providse rapid measurements of size-resolved aerosol sub-saturated hygroscopic growth factors and the real part of aerosol refractive index. It has been deployed aboard the NASA DC-8 during the DC3 and SEAC4RS field campaign and also on the P3 during ARCSIX (May-Aug 2024).
