Atmospheric & gaseous mercury from aerosol samples collected using high volume and low volume sampling systems on Leg 1 (Seattle, WA to Hilo, HI) of the US GEOTRACES PMT cruise (GP15, RR1814) on R/V Roger Revelle from Sept-Oct 2018

Abstract

Aerosol samples were collected using high volume and low volume sampling systems on Leg 1 (Seattle, WA to Hilo, HI) of the US GEOTRACES Pacific Meridional Transect (PMT) cruise (GP15, RR1814) on R/V Roger Revelle from Sept-Oct 2018. This dataset reports atmospheric mercury associated with aerosols collected using these sampling systems. The Tekran low volume sampling system was also used to measure total gaseous elemental mercury and gaseous ionic ("reactive") mercury, which are also reported in this dataset.
