What is being bought
Air Quality Supersite Triplets (UK-AQST) is a NERC funded national facility, and has been funded by NERC capital fund to provide access to two mobile air quality laboratories for UK atmospheric science community. The new air quality laboratories will be paired with one of the existing supersites in Birmingham, London or Manchester, to provide a first-ever monitoring of detailed air pollution composition at three different types of sites, e.g., roadside, urban, and rural (upwind) locations. As part of the newly funded UK-AQST, we wish to purchase one Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitor, exactly the same as in the existing NERC-funded air quality supersite, for each mobile laboratory.

Procedure rationaleAerodyne is the only manufacturer of Aerosol chemical speciation monitor (ACSM) in the world that can provide an online observation of both inorganic and organic compounds in ambient aerosols. The Air Quality Supersite Triplets, funded by NERC, aims to provide consistent observations of aerosol and gas compositions at a roadside, urban background and rural sites simultaneously. The newly funded two air quality supersites will be paired with the existing urban background site, either at Birmingham, London or Manchester for observations. Each of the existing supersites has exactly the same ACSM that we seek to procure. This will ensure that we are able to provide a consistent observation of aerosol compositions at all three sites so that we can better understand their sources and processes.
