Elemental ratio measurements of organic compounds using aerosol mass spectrometry: characterization, improved calibration, and implications

Elemental ratio measurements of organic compounds using aerosol mass spectrometry: characterization, improved calibration, and implications

Elemental compositions of organic aerosol (OA) particles provide useful constraints on OA sources, chemical evolution, and effects. The Aerodyne high-resolution time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (HR-ToF-AMS) is widely used to measure OA elemental composition. This study evaluates AMS measurem...
