AEROMMA and CUPiDS 2023 Aircraft Campaigns Dataset from 2023-06-14 to 2023-08-26 (NCEI Accession 0304869)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 05:04 AM | Dataset Last Updated: June 12, 2025 at 12:00 AM
The Atmospheric Emissions and Reactions Observed from Megacities to Marine Areas (AEROMMA) and the Coastal Urban Plume Dynamics Study (CUPiDS) field campaigns were led by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Chemical Sciences Laboratory (NOAA CSL) and occurred from June – August 2023. The AEROMMA campaign investigated the anthropogenic and marine emissions that alter tropospheric composition and impact air quality and climate over North America and focused on understanding the changing paradigms in emissions and the future of urban air quality, refining our understanding of the marine atmosphere, and validating remote sensing capabilities from satellites in urban and remote atmospheres. AEROMMA deployed around 30 state-of-the-art instruments, which comprehensively measured meteorological parameters, trace gases, and aerosols on NASA's DC-8 aircraft. In coordination with AEROMMA, the CUPiDS campaign deployed 5 instruments on the NOAA Twin Otter and deployed 2 NOAA ground-based lidars to the Yale Coastal Field Station in Connecticut. CUPiDs focused on measuring dynamics and chemistry over the New York City region. This data repository is a snapshot of the final data as of 10 February 2025. For the latest versions of the dataset, see NOAA CSL’s data repository: https://csl.noaa.gov/projects/aeromma/data.html.
