FL1_280: aerosol fluorescent signal measured by WIBS, when particle is excited by 280 nm Xenon light source and detected in the waveband of 310 nm – 400 nm [-]
FL2_280: aerosol fluorescent signal measured by WIBS, when particle is excited by 280 nm Xenon light source and detected in the waveband of 420 nm – 650 nm [-]
FL2_370: aerosol fluorescent signal measured by WIBS, when particle is excited by 370 nm Xenon light source and detected in the waveband of 420 nm – 650 nm [-]
Size: optical diameter of single particle measured by WIBS [μm]
Pwr_280: power of the 280 nm Xenon light source [-]
Pwr_370: power of the 370 nm Xenon light source [-]
FT: flags for periods when WIBS conducted forced triggering measurements. The values of 2 in this column corresponds to actual instrument measurements, while the value of 3 corresponds forced triggering periods [-]
AF: asymmetry factor measured by WIBS [-]
MPC: number of missing aerosol particle counts between two consecutive Xenon flash lamp activations [-]
