Title

Monthly ammonia measurements from passive samplers using ALPHA® PTFE1020 membrane at four UK Eutrophying and Acidifying Pollutants (UKEAP) network sites, 2021

Abstract

This dataset consists of monthly ammonia (NH3) measurements from ALPHA® (Adapted Low-cost Passive High Absorption) samplers co-located with UKEAP DELTA sites from January 2021 to December 2021. The UK Eutrophying and Acidifying Atmospheric Pollutants (UKEAP) network measures air pollutants at rural sites across the UK. Originally the purpose of these measurements was for validation of new PTFE membrane for ALPHA® samplers prepared at UKCEH Edinburgh research laboratory.

Local site operator duties are completed by UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (UKCEH) staff, Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute (AFBI) staff at Hillsborough and Ricardo AEA staff at Chilbolton. Analysis is completed by the UKCEH Edinburgh. Data analysis and preparation is conducted using the AAGA (Ammonia Acids Gases and Aerosols) data processing tool. AAGA is a database designed to introduce more reliable, reproductible and traceable way of handling data from ALPHA® samplers.
