SIA23 was a three-week laboratory campaign at the AIDA facility of KIT. The main purpose was to study selected aerosol particles with several single particle aerosol mass spectrometers (PALMS-NG, ERICA, ALABAMA). Further objectives included reproducing ATAL particles, coating of sea spray, ice nucleation properties, and more

Instruments:

ERICA (ERC Instrument for the Chemical composition of Aerosols)

ALABAMA (Aircraft-based Laser ABlation Aerosol MAss spectrometer)
