BIOARC: ground site real-time bioaerosol spectrometer datasets (2019-2021)

These datasets contain total, non-fluorescent and bio-fluorescent aerosol particle concentrations and particle size distributions collected with University of Manchester WIBS-4M an MBS-M spectrometers during the Towards a UK Airborne Bioaerosol Climatology (BIOARC) project.

Data was collected at the following ground sites:

Cardington Meteorological Research Unit: MBS-M, 11/04/2019 - 09/06/2019

Chilbolton Observatory: WIBS-4D, 14/05/2019 - 14/06/2019

Weybourne Atmospheric Observatory: WIBS-4M, 03/06/2019 - 01/08/2019

Chilbolton Observatory: WIBS-4M, 10/09/2020 - 21/06/2021

Weybourne Atmospheric Observatory: MBS-M, 15/09/2020 - 03/11/2019
