The Aerosol Microphysical Properties (AMP) is an in situ airborne instrument suite operated by NOAA. It consists of instruments such as the Nucleation-Mode Aerosol Size Spectrometer (NMASS), Ultra-High Sensitivity Aerosol Spectrometer (UHSAS), Laser Aerosol Spectrometer (LAS), and Coarse-Mode Aerosol Size Spectrometer (CMASS). AMP provides measurements of aerosol particle size distribution and particle number, size, and volume concentration. It can measure aerosols within the size range of 3 to 40,000 nm and provides measurements at 1 Hz resolution.
