Abstract

We introduce a new in-situ instrument, Thermal desorption Aerosol GC/MS-FID (TAG), capable of hourly measurements of speciated organic compounds in atmospheric aerosols. Aerosol samples are collected into a thermal desorption cell by means of humidification and inertial impaction. The sample is thermally desorbed and transferred with helium carrier gas into a gas chromatography (GC) column, with subsequent detection by both quadrupole mass spectrometer (MS) and a flame ionization detector (FID). The collection and analysis steps are automated, yielding around the clock speciation. This approach builds on the extensive body of knowledge available for quantification and source apportionment of organic aerosols from past research using filter-based GC/MS analyses, but it is the first instrument to achieve in-situ time resolved measurements for an essentially unlimited number of samples, making it possible to analyze changes in organic aerosol speciation over timescales ranging from hours to seasons.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
