Longterm observations (2002-present) of atmospheric chemistry parameters have been made at the Weybourne Atmospheric Observatory (WAO) including ozone, carbon monoxide and dulphur dioxide, oxides of nitrogen and cloud condensation nuclei. WAO is an NCAS facility and part of the School of Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia (UEA). It is situated on the north Norfolk coast and is a world class facility for fundamental research, background atmospheric monitoring and teaching purposes. WAO operates a range of instruments in its measurement programme - the data from which is archived at the BADC. The WAO has also been the focus of many international experiments designed to into the chemistry of the planetary boundary layer and free troposphere.

Southern Ocean Atmospheric Photochemistry Experiment 2 (SOAPEX-2) is primarily an experiment to study atmospheric cleansing by free radicals in extremely clean and slightly perturbed tropospheric air and focuses on a field campaign carried out at Cape Grim, Tasmania in January-February 1999. The dataset contains concentrations of seawater alkyl nitrates and halocarbons. This dataset is public.

The African Easterly Jet (AEJ) is part of a climatic system which is of critical importance to African and global weather and climate, but is poorly observed and not well represented in model analyses. For the JET2000 project the Met Office Met Research flight (MRF) aircraft performed four flights, involving transects along and across the jet and the baroclinic zone, to make observations of unprecedented resolution for this part of the world. 110 dropsondes were dropped along the fight path. The data includes detailed synoptic observations of the basic state over mainland West Africa, and detailed synoptic observations of the African Easterly Waves (AEW) over mainland tropical West Africa.

This dataset contains hourly online measurements of VOC mixing ratios using Gas Chromatography with Flame Ionisation Detector (GC-FID) at Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW), Dehli, India. Mixing ratios are reported in parts per billion by volume (ppbV). The stationary inlet was located on the roof of a single-story building. This data was collected over two measurements periods (28/05/2018 - 05/06/2018 and 05/10/2018 - 27/10/2018), for the APHH-India DelhiFlux project, by the University of York. Data analysis was completed by Beth Nelson and Jim Hopkins at the University of York. Mixing ratios for the following species are included: ethane, ethene, propane, propane, iso-butane, n-butane, acetylene, trans-2-butene, 1-butene, iso-butene*, cis-2-butene, cyclopentane*, iso-pentane, n-pentane, 1,3-butadiene, trans-2-pentene, 1-pentene, n-octane, n-hexane, isoprene, n-heptane, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, combined m,p-xylene, o-xylene, methanol, acetone, ethanol, 1,2-butadiene*, propyne*. Date and time given in Local time as Julian day where 2018 01 01 = 0 Calibrations have been performed using a certified NPL 30 component mixture, and certified NPL 6 component mixture for o-VOC calibration. NOTE: any compound not contained therein has been assumed to have the same response factor as its closest isomer*. The data were collected as part of the DelhiFlux project part of Air Pollution & Human Health in a Developing Indian Megacity (APHH-India) programme.

The data were collected by radiosonde at Reading by Convective Storm Initiation Project (CSIP) participants at the University of Reading between the 16th of June 2005 and the 25th of August 2005. Data include measurements of air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, and air pressure.

This dataset contains photolysis rate measurements made during the Pre- Monsoon and Post-Monsoon periods of the APHH Delhi campaigns in 2018 at Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW) site. Photolysis rates are derived from the product of the absorption cross-section of the precursor molecule, the quantum yield of the photo-product and the actinic flux density (cm-2s-1nm-1). The actinic flux is measured between 280 - 650 nm (<1 nm resolution) using a Ocean Optics spectral radiometer attached to a quartz receiver optic. Data is averaged to 1 minute time-stamp. The data were collected as part of the DelhiFlux project part of Air Pollution & Human Health in a Developing Indian Megacity (APHH-India) programme.

Longterm measurements of Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide (CO2) at Weybourne Atmospheric Observatory (WAO) using a Siemens NDIR instrument operated by the NCAS (National Centre for Atmospheric Science) AMF (Atmospheric Measurement Facility). WAO, situated on the north Norfolk coast, is part of the School of Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia (UEA) and is a world class facility for fundemental research, background atmospheric monitoring and teaching purposes. WAO operates a range of instruments in its measurement programme - the data from which is archived at the BADC.

This dataset contains hourly VOC concentration measurements from the University of York's two-dimensional gas chromatography with flame ionisation detection instrument. This instrument was located at the Indira Gandi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW). Mixing ratios are reported in parts per billion by volume (ppbV). The stationary inlet was located on the roof of a single-story building. Calibrations have been performed using a certified NPL 30 component mixture. Certain C4 substituted monoaromatic compounds have been tentatively identified. Monoterpenes have been quantified based on their relative response to liquid injections. The data were collected as part of the DelhiFlux project part of Air Pollution & Human Health in a Developing Indian Megacity (APHH-India) programme.

This dataset contains volatile organic compound concentration measurements made by the University of Lancaster using the UK CEH proton transfer reaction-quadrupole ion guide time of flight-mass spectrometer (PTR-QiTOF-MS). Measurements were made at the Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW) field site, Dehli, India during the DelhiFlux campaigns. Measurements from 04/10/2018 to 04/11/2018 were made at ground level (~4 m). Measurements from 05/11/2018 to 23/11/2018 were made at 30 m above ground level. All values are reported in ppbV (parts per billion by volume). The data were collected as part of the DelhiFlux project part of Air Pollution & Human Health in a Developing Indian Megacity (APHH-India) programme.
