CLAP
Continuous Light Absorption Photometer (CLAP)
9 March 2011 - 9 March 2012
Lead Scientist: Anne Jefferson
Observatory: SGP (Southern Great Plains)
The CLAP was installed at SGP in February of 2011. During a one year comparison period, aerosol absorption coefficients from the CLAP, PSAP and PAAS were compared and the CLAP performance evaluated. As part of GVAX, the CLAP was also installed at the AMF in parallel to the PSAP. The installation in India provided an opportunity to evaluate the CLAP and PSAP under conditions of high organic aerosol loading.Timeline
