Description
To examine chemical transformation within stagnant air masses and the atmospheric processes acting upon such air masses, the United States EPA sponsored a study in the summer of 1980 in the northeastern region of the country. Ten research aircraft and several mobile and stationary surface monitoring platforms from three EPA contractors, seven federal agencies, and four universities participated in an intensive measurement program between 16 July and 15 August 1980. Pollutants of interest included SO2, NO, NO/sub x/, HC, O3, sulfate, nitrate, and aerosols in general
