A new balloon-borne system for measuring the vertical variability of aerosol optical properties using low-cost sensors

This study presents a newly developed balloon-borne AeroSonde system equipped with calibrated low-cost optical particulate matter sensors (SPS30) for vertically resolved aerosol optical measurements. Calibration of the sensors against reference instruments (Aurora 4000 nephelomet...

Under the Sea: Detection of Explosives Underwater Using Raman Spectroscopy

Secondary explosives such as 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane (RDX) and 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) were commonly used in the production of many types of munitions during World War II and still continue to be used, for example, 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane (HMX) a...

A compilation of global bio-optical in situ data for ocean-colour satellite applications – version four

Abstract. A global in situ dataset for validation of satellite products from the ESA Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative (OC-CCI) is presented. This version of the compilation, with data starting in 1996, extends to 2025, which is important for the validation of recent algorit...
