Arctic haze and the Arctic gas and aerosol sampling program /AGASP/

Abstract

The Arctic Gas and Aerosol Sampling Program (AGASP) was conducted across the Arctic in the spring of 1983 to study the large scale air pollution phenomenon known as Arctic haze. A component of this program utilized a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration WP-3D Orion research aircraft to study the haze in situ. The program and aircraft instrumentation are described.
