Three main papers will be presented: Eiko Nemitz, overview of bulk composition during the EMEP-EUCAARI 2008-2009 campaigns; Andre Prevot: PMF analysis of organic AMS fraction during the EMEP-EUCAARI 2008-2009 campaigns; Astrid Kiendler-Scharr: organic nitrate and CE for high nitrate concentrations. Single brief (5 slides max) presentations for individual field studies are very welcome.

Topics to be discussed on Monday

  • CE

Tue-Wed March 1-2, 2011: AMS Mini-Clinic

Some European scientists may not be able to attend the AMS clinic in Boulder (http://cires.colorado.edu/jimenez-group/wiki/index.php?title=AMS_Clinic3; 20-25/03/2011) so we do a European mini-clinic of 2 whole days focusing on main AMS issues including PMF. These two days are aimed to train students and data analysis people – time will be maximized and specific tasks will be thought (including PMF data analysis preparation, treatment and interpretation).

  • Tuesday Morning
    • frag table adjustments (Donna)
    • HR / PIKA (Donna)
      • Click-along tutorial with PIKA (led by Donna)
  • Tuesday Afternoon
    • After lunch: Open mike for user issues and questions (from ongoing analyses) & group discussion
    • HR species and frag table. SQ vs PK comparisons and differences. (Changes in SQ should be redone in PK) (Donna leading a click along)
    • Elemental Analysis (APES) -- click along
  • Wednesday Morning
    • James' update on PMF errors
    • Examples of using incorrect errors in PMF
  • Wednesday Afternoon
    • After lunch: Open Mike for user issues and questions (from ongoing analyses) & group discussion

Thu & Fri March 3-4, 2011: BCN campaigns (DAURE & SAPUSS)

Two projects were carried out in Barcelona in the last 3 years: DAURE (Jose Jimenez) and SAPUSS (Manuel Dall’Osto) where a number of AMS were deployed. Main presentation of results (Thursday – all welcome, we try to do this as a one day conference) and data analysis and publication SAPUSS-DAURE strategies (Friday) will be discussed.
