Table 11.

List of attributes in the files originating from the off-axis integrated cavity output spectroscopy instrument in the ARM container, and archived on the ARM Data Archive.

Variable Definition
time Date and Time of measurement in Coordinated Universal Time.
base_time Base time (“2019-10-11 00:00:00” in our case).
time_offset Time offset from base time.
seconds_after_calibration Seconds after calibration.
co Carbon monoxide mixing ratio calculated with nominal sensitivity correction in parts per million.
qc_co Quality control flag. This field contains bit packed integer values, where each bit represents a QC test on the data. Non-zero bits indicate the QC condition given in the description for those bits (see file mosaoscoM1.b1.20191011.004433.header.txt for a full description); a value of 0 (no bits set) indicates the data has not failed any QC tests.
n2o Nitrous oxide mixing ratio calculated with nominal sensitivity correction in parts per million.
qc_n2o Quality control flag. This field contains bit packed integer values, where each bit represents a QC test on the data. Non-zero bits indicate the QC condition given in the description for those bits (see file mosaoscoM1.b1.20191011.004433.header.txt for a full description); a value of 0 (no bits set) indicates the data has not failed any QC tests.
h2o Water vapor mixing ratio calculated with nominal sensitivity correction in parts per million.
qc_h2o Quality control flag. This field contains bit packed integer values, where each bit represents a QC test on the data. Non-zero bits indicate the QC condition given in the description for those bits (see file mosaoscoM1.b1.20191011.004433.header.txt for a full description); a value of 0 (no bits set) indicates the data has not failed any QC tests.
co_dry Carbon monoxide mixing ratio corrected for water vapor concentration and calculated with nominal sensitivity correction in parts per million.
qc_co_dry Quality control flag. This field contains bit packed integer values, where each bit represents a QC test on the data. Non-zero bits indicate the QC condition given in the description for those bits (see file mosaoscoM1.b1.20191011.004433.header.txt for a full description); a value of 0 (no bits set) indicates the data has not failed any QC tests.
n2o_dry Nitrous oxide mixing ratio corrected for water vapor concentration and calculated with nominal sensitivity correction in parts per million.
qc_n2o_dry Quality control flag. This field contains bit packed integer values, where each bit represents a QC test on the data. Non-zero bits indicate the QC condition given in the description for those bits (see file mosaoscoM1.b1.20191011.004433.header.txt for a full description); a value of 0 (no bits set) indicates the data has not failed any QC tests.
gas_pressure Cell sample pressure in torr.
gas_temperature Cell sample temperature in degrees Celsius.
ambient_temperature Ambient temperature of instrument in degrees Celsius.
set_point_for_MFC_1 Set point for mass flow controller 1 in cm3/min.
mass_flow_through_MFC_1 Actual mass flow through mass flow controller 1 in cm3/min.
valve_position_MFC_1 Valve position for mass flow controller 1 (0 for open, 1 for closed, −1 for error).
set_point_for_MFC_2 Set point for mass flow controller 2 in cm3/min.
mass_flow_through_MFC_2 Actual mass flow through mass flow controller 2 in cm3/min.
valve_position_MFC_2 Valve position for mass flow controller 2 (0 for open, 1 for closed, −1 for error).
