DOI

We present high-resolution number size distribution measurements obtained using a Welas 2300 spectrometer (Palas GmbH) at the Kennaook/Cape Grim Baseline Air Pollution Station in Tasmania, Australia, during the Cloud and Precipitation Experiment at Kennaook Cape Grim (CAPE-k) between 01.06.2025 and 17.11.2025.

The raw size distribution has been exported using PDAnalyze software (Palas GmbH) for the corresponding calibration. The measurement range changed from calibration range 133 (0.137253- 23.2452 Micrometers) to calibration range 159 (0.122333 - 9.9868 Micrometers) on 28.08.2025 at 16:00 UTC. The size distribution is given in volume-equivalent diameters. The Data was collected using a Promo 2000 (Palas GmbH). The Welas spectrometer was positioned in the inlet of a Portable Ice Nucleation Experiment (PINE) instrument behind two Nafion dryers. The sample flow rate was 1 slpm.
