The Ag Data Commons is migrating

The Ag Data Commons is migrating to a new institutional portal on Figshare. The current system is available for search and download only. The new platform is open for submission with assistance from Ag Data Commons curators. Please contact NAL-ADC-Curator@usda.gov, if you need to publish or update your datasets.

Data Extent

Data from: Characterization of particle size distributions and water-soluble ions in particulate matter measured at a broiler farm

Broiler poultry houses

This is USDA-ARS data from the publication, "Characterization of particle size distributions and water-soluble ions in particulate matter measured at a broiler farm." This study was conducted in June of 2018. Data included here are from several measurements:

  1. Gas-phase ammonia measurements measured by an electrochemical sensor (Cairpol) in part-per-billion (ppb) with 1 minute time interval.
  2. Particle number concentration inside and outside the house measured by two optical particle counters (MetOne) in number per cubic centimeter (mg/cc) with 20 second interval. Particles were measured from 0.5-10 micrometers in 8 size bins.
  3. Particle number concentration measured by a scanning mobility particle sizer (TSI) and given as the differential number per size bin over 80 bins from 10-500 nanometers with a 5 minute time interval.
  4. Water-soluble ions in particulate matter measured by an ambient ion monitor (URG) measured in microgram per cubic meter with a 1 hour time interval.
