Description

This dataset contains measurements of various trace gases from the PAN and Trace Hydrohalocarbon ExpeRiment (PANTHER) across the four ATom campaigns. PANTHER uses Electron Capture Detection and Gas Chromatography (ECD-GC) and Mass Selective Detection and Gas Chromatography (MSD-GC) to measure numerous trace gases, including methyl halides, HCFCs, PAN, N2O, SF6, CFC-12, CFC-11, Halon 1211, methyl chloroform, carbon tetrachloride.
