A multi-wavelength photoacoustic spectrometer developed collaboratively by the Department of Atmospheric Science Engineering team and Murphy's research group.
Observation systems and data collection form a central theme in most atmospheric science research at UW. Creating innovative instruments while refining and analyzing current equipment is essential for applying observational data to solve important scientific problems. The department operates specialized labs including the Keck Aerosol Lab (Murphy) and Cloud Physics Lab (French), which produce particles for testing and calibrating aerosol/cloud measurement devices used in mobile platforms or aboard the King Air Research Aircraft. Current projects involve designing advanced instruments for precise in-situ analysis of aerosol optical/chemical characteristics (Murphy) and cloud particle properties (French), alongside large-scale remote sensing of clouds and aerosols. The King Air Research facility specializes in deploying lidar and radar technologies.
