These files result from in-situ balloonborne size resolved aerosol concentration measurements collected above Laramie, Wyoming (41°N, 105°W) and the other locations using University of Wyoming aerosol counters. Almost all flights from Laramie take place between 06:00 and 09:00 local time. The sizes measured always include condensation nuclei (CN, r > 0.01 mm) and particles with radius ³ 0.15, 0.25 mm. Measurements with radius ³ 0.15 - 2.0 mm in 12 size classes have been completed since 1991. See Deshler et al. (2003) for a table with the complete measurement history.

Structure of Size Distribution Files:
The file name corresponds to the date of the flight in YYMMDD and a two letter place identifier. The extension indicates the averaging interval, SD2 = 0.5 km average. The lower altitude corresponds to the tropopause for that day, while the upper altitude is the top of the sounding.
The first line of the data file contains the date, instruments used, flight number, and sizes measured. The next two lines contain column labels and units for the data columns.
Data file columns:
1 - Type of fit: 1-> monomodal (=> 11 columns), 2-> bimodal (=> 14 columns)
2 - Potential temperature (K), calculated
3 - Altitude (km), calculated from hydrostatic equation
4 - Pressure (hPa), measured with Vaisala sensor, precision ~0.5 hPa
5 - Temperature (K), measured with Vaisala sensor, precision ~0.1 K
6 - Surface area (mm2 cm-3), calculated, precision ± 40%
7 - Volume (mm3 cm-3), calculated, precision ± 40%
8 - Error of the fit (see below)
9 - N1 = (CN - N2) (cm-3), measured
10 - r1 (mm), calculated from size distributions fit to aerosol measurements
11 - s1, calculated from size distributions fit to aerosol measurements
12 - N2 (cm-3), calculated from size distributions fit to aerosol measurements
13 - r2 (mm),, calculated from size distributions fit to aerosol measurements
14 - s2, calculated from size distributions fit to aerosol measurements
Error of the fit = S{ln (Nm(r) / Nc(r)}2. Nm(r) is the measured number concentration and Nc(r) the number concentration calculated from the size distributions fit to the measurements. Altitudes for which reasonable size distributions could not be obtained are not included.
Structure of Aerosol Concentration Files:
The file name corresponds to the date of the flight in YYMMDD and a two letter place identifier. The extension 5km or asc indicates the averaging: 5km=0.5 km average, asc=full data resolution. The lower altitude corresponds to the tropopause for that day for the files in the directory .../Nr_0.5km_Stratosphere/, while the upper altitude is the top of the sounding. The structure of all Nr_ files are the same, with the exception that ozone may or may not be included. If included it appears as the 5th column.
The first line of the data file contains the date, instruments used, flight number, and number of sizes measured (NoCh). The next two lines contain column labels and units for the data columns.
Data file columns:
1 - Potential temperature (K), calculated
2 - Altitude (km), calculated from hydrostatic equation
3 - Pressure (hPa), measured with Vaisala sensor, precision ~0.5 hPa
4 - Temperature (K), measured with Vaisala sensor, precision ~0.1 K
5 – Concentration (cm-3) of condensation nuclei (CN), if measured, otherwise values of 1.01E=39.
6 – NoCh+4 - N(r>x.xx) concentration (cm-3), where x.xx = particle radius. For precision and detection limit see discussion below. A more complete discussion is provided by Deshler et al. [2003].
The minimum concentration measurable with these instruments is given by S / F. for sample frequency, S=0.1 Hz, and flow rate, F. For example, the minimum concentration detectable is 5.7 x 10-4 cm-3 for F = 167 cm3 s-1, and 5.7 x 10-3 cm-3 for F = 16.7 cm3 s-1. When the aerosol concentration is below the detection threshold of the instrument the concentration is arbitrarily assigned a value of 1.01E-39. The first channel at which this occurs is arbitrarily assigned a value of 1.01 E-06 and is used to fix the large particle tail of the size distribution.
Poisson statistics define the fractional uncertainty of a counting measurement as its inverse square root, C-0.5 for C counts in one sample, becoming important at low concentrations. The aerosol concentration, N = C S / F. Thus the Poisson error fraction, in terms of concentration, is (N F / S)-0.5. For these instruments: S = 0.1 Hz, F = 16.7 cm3 s-1 for a two channel counter and CN counter, and F = 167 cm3 s-1 for a counter with more than two channels. In the stratosphere these flow rates are reduced to about 80% of these values by temperature differences between outside air and pump. This leads to uncertainties of 85, 25, and 8% for concentrations of 0.01, 0.1, and 1.0 cm-3 at the low flow rate and concentrations of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1 cm-3 at the high flow rate. This error dominates at concentrations below 0.1 (0.01) cm-3 for the low (high) flow rate instrument. At concentrations higher than these a concentration error of ±10% reflects comparisons of concentration measurements from two instruments using identical aerosol in the laboratory.
