SCILLA mini-Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (mAMS) airborne data

Measurements of non-refractory, sub-micron aerosol composition, namely organic, sulfate, nitrate, chloride, and ammonium aerosols, by a mini- aerosol mass spectrometer (mAMS, Aerodyne Research, Inc.) are reported. The instrument sampled ambient air through 3 different inlets: unperturbed ambient air, a Counter-flow Virtual Impactor (CVI), and an oxidation flow reactor (OFR). Users should consult the Sampling Key for proper interpretation of the data.

Closing the Gap: A Global Perspective [Slides]

Against the backdrop of negotiations at COP26, a group of internationally recognised research and technology organisations launched a collaboration, with the intention to identify the national and international technology-led opportunities to decarbonise fossil fuel basins globally. This study will evidence the opportunities available to players across the entire energy ecosystem. Governments and funders will be able to spread costs and investment risk, energy companies will develop a greater understanding of the global transition and possible opportunities to develop pilot projects worldwide, and there will be greater incentive to the supply chain once they are aware of the global applicability of certain technologies and technology solutions. Through the analysis and comparison of national energy systems, a number of Net Zero Deployment Strategies and Technology Priorities have been identified, that are shaping the direction of the construction of net zero integrated energy systems globally. These have been considered to design Recommendations for International Collaboration to accelerate the global energy transition.
