▶ 📝 Notes
* the instrument was deplyoed for the first time at Melpitz in Sept 2024 for tests. A lot of improvement was already made on the sampling line and instrument setting. However, we are sure that there is still lot of space for further improvements as it is a new research topic for us. As the station is also an EMEP station, question is open if the data could also be flag as EMEP data (open to discussion). It is already the case for some of the aerosol parameters.
