Organic Tracers and Aerosol Constituents Calibration Center (OGTAC-CC)

The Atmospheric Chemistry Department of TROPOS hosts the Organic Tracers and Aerosol Constituents - Calibration Centre (OGTAC-CC), which is the first calibration center for these class of compounds worldwide, providing a strong benefit to the aerosol community, as it harmonizes approaches for the chemical analysis of organic particulate constituents.

Workshop Schedule 2025-2026

During the year the OGTAC-CC offers different ACTRIS-Workshops for the National Facilities (NF). The workshop schedule is frequently updated and shows the details during the workshops. The following overview shows the planed workshop weeks during the year.

Questionnaire
CAIS-ECAC - Operation Support Questionnaire

We would be grateful if you could fill out the online questionnaire after the ACTRIS workshop week. This questionaire was generated to evaluate the operation support you received by CAIS-ECAC. It will help us to improve the operation and make it more user-oriented.
