Observation
Category : Air sampling observation
Situation : ongoing
Time zone : UTC


Sampling
Sampling height : 2
Description : continuous
Sampling and analysis frequency : O3 is sampled every 10 seconds. Data are averaged every five minutes, and stored in database.
Sampling environment : Puy de Dome station is a non urban site is far from pollution sources and is situated the most of time in the free troposphere.
Description for sampling analysis :


Instrument and Analysis
Measurement method : Light absorption analysis (UV)
Current status and history of instrument :
Description of instrument : Ranges: 0-0.005 to 200ppm
0-0.1 to 400 mg/m3

Zero noise: 0.5 ppb RMS

Zero drift: <1ppb/24 hour
<2ppb/7 day
Span drift: <1% per month

Precision: 1 ppb


Calibration
Current scale employed in the measurement : Traceable to national standard scale ( EMD : Ecole des Mines de Douai - France )
Measurement calibration :
Scale and calibration(treasability) : The raw data from the instrument is collected by the data acquisition system and sended to database computer in five minutes average raw data


Data Processing
Measurement unit : ppb
Data processing :
Processing for averaging : Processing for Hourly Data:
Hourly data are generated by arithmetic means of the previous hour data
Invalid data are not included. An hour interval with less than 75% avalabl values is forced with a "-999" mean
Processing for Daily Data:
Daily data are generated by arithmetic means of the previous day data
Invalid data are not included. An daily interval with less than 75% avalable values is forced with a "-999" mean
Processing for Monthly Data:
Monthly data are generated by arithmetic means of the previous month data
Invalid data are not included. An monthly interval with less than 75% avalable values is forced with a "-999" mean
