Atmospheric Halocarbon Observations at Finokalia, Crete, Greece

Description

Atmospheric halocarbon (HFC, HCFC) observations (mole fractions) from the site Finokalia (FKL, 35.34 °N, 25.67 °E, 250 m a.s.l.) on the island of Crete, Greece, covering the period December 2012 to August 2013). The measurements were conducted using a gas chromatograph
(Agilent 6890) and:mass spectrometer (Agilent 5973) (GC-MS), coupled to an adsorption desorption system (ADS) for preconcentration of samples from the air (Simmonds et al., 1995).

The measurements are described in detail in: Schoenenberger, F., S. Henne, M. Hill, M. K. Vollmer, G. Kouvarakis, N. Mihalopoulos, S. O'Doherty, M. Maione, L. Emmenegger, T. Peter, and S. Reimann  (2017), Abundance and Sources of Atmospheric Halocarbons in the Eastern Mediterranean, Atmos. Chem. Phys. Discuss., 2017, 1-46, doi: 10.5194/acp-2017-451.

The data format is plain text character-separated and follows that used in the AGAGE community. Further details are given at the AGAGE data archive: http://agage.eas.gatech.edu/data_archive/agage/
