OGTAC-CC call for ACTRIS related training activities on organic tracers and aerosol constituents within the framework of the CAIS-ECAC

The OrGanic Tracers and Aerosol Constituents - Calibration Center (OGTAC-CC), hosted and operated by TROPOS ACD as one TC unit of the CAIS-ECAC consortium, is announcing the following activity for all operators of ACTRIS NFs (observational and exploratory platforms), and former EUROCHAMP2020 members as well as to all other interested parties as users:
Topic:

Theory and practice - LC-MS analysis of organic tracer compounds and determination of organic and elemental carbon (OC/EC) from particulate matter collected on filters
OGTAC-CC offers a hands-on training course at TROPOS ACD, with the following elements:

• Introduction and presentation of sample collectors, preparation devices and analytical instrumentation

Invitation:
Intercomparison campaign of chemical ionization mass spectrometry to measure condensable vapors at TROPOS

Place: Tropos, Leipzig, Germany
Time: February 27th – March 10th, 2023

Dear ACTRIS Community,

This message is meant for all of you working with chemical ionization mass spectrometry.

We warmly invite you to take part in an intercomparison workshop for chemical ionization mass spectrometry to measure condensable vapors in September 2022, Leipzig, Germany. More information can be found in the attached document and below.

Please indicate your interest in participating in the workshop by 1st June 2022 via contacting us at actris-api@helsinki.fi. We are also happy to answer any questions you may have.

Thank you very much!

Sincerely,
