Abstract
Results of airborne measurements of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) are presented from the chemical instrumentation and test evaluation (CITE) experiment. Data from six techniques representing three different detection principles as well as several collection, preconcentration, and oxidant scrubbing methods at various altitudes are intercompared. Statistically significant measurement biases were noted among some of the techniques, but in all cases the bias is small and within the accuracy of the measurements and prepared DMS standard. It is concluded that the techniques compared provide equally valid measurements of DMS in the range of a few pptv to 100 pptv. (AIAA)
