Observation (carbon isotopes) and model data for Arctic black carbon, Tiksi, Russia, April 2012 to March 2014
Örjan Gustafsson, Patrik Winiger
Data of high-volume total suspended particles (TSP) aerosol samples, measured in Tiksi, Northeast Siberia, Russia. The data cover ~24 months of consecutive sampling. Sampling duration is 21-84 days. Further, radiocarbon and ¹²C/¹³C-isotope analysis of some samples are available, to distinguish sources (fossil vs. biomass) of elemental carbon (i.e. black carbon). The same period was also modeled (exactly matching observations) by the atmospheric transport model FLEXPART (Flexible Particle Dispersion Model) coupled to two emission inventories: Global Fire Emissions Database (GFED) and Evaluating the Climate and Air Quality Impacts of Short-Lived Pollutants (ECLIPSE).
