FILE NAMING CONVENTION AND DATA CONTENT:

Scattering and Absorption data reported in table SM1 and SM2 (see Supplementary material):

  • Filename indicates the site acronym according to Table 3
  • Data (EBAS level 2) are hourly means; The first 4 columns indicate the starting time (year month day hour, UTC) of the averaging period;
  • Missing data: -9999
  • Unit: Mm-1
  • The wavelengths are indicated in the header line. They are originally reported by the station PIs
  • In case of multiple instruments, data were merged to increase the data coverage (eg. IPR first 6 months of scat are from a TSI nephelometer and second 6 months are from another TSI nephelometer; GIF/SIR had 2 single WL aurora, and these were combined in the same file in 2 different columns, ALT had 2 nephelometer and they were merged. So this happened at few sites).

PNSD and CN data reported in table SM3 (see Supplementary material):

  • Filename indicates the site acronym (according to Table 3) and the year used in the analysis
  • Data (EBAS level 2) are hourly means; The first 4 columns indicate the starting time (year month day hour, UTC) of the averaging period;
  • Missing/bad data is replaced by -999.999
  • Data only with a flag of a valid type are reported
  • PNSD data:
    • Diameter of the bin (nm) is indicated in the header line
    • The dn/dlog(dp) in each size bin is reported (cm-3);
    • Ntot (cm-3): total concentration (10-500 nm)
  • CN data:
    • Conc. (cm-3): total CN concentration
