AMOG
AutoMObile trace Gas Surveyor

The AutoMObile trace Gas (AMOG) Surveyor is an in situ mobile instrument suite developed by Bubbleology Research International (BRI). It consists of several gas, aerosol, and meteorological sensors mounted on a passenger vehicle. AMOG provides measurements of trace gases, aerosols, temperature, wind, pressure, humidity, and radiation at a rate of 5 Hz to 0.016 Hz, depending on the sensor. It has a spatial resolution of 0.04 m to 24 m, depending on the velocity of the vehicle.
