    String history 
"For the scattering coefficient the truncation error correction is performed according to Muller et al. (2009) and assuming a scattering angstrom exponent of 1.15 (Schmeisser et al., 2018). For absorption coefficient, the PSAP measurements are corrected according to Bond et al. (1999) for flow and sampling filter area and according to Virkkula et al. (2011) for loading and shadowing effect, using simultaneous scattering coefficient measurements. For all the aerosols instruments, quality control procedures will include periodic flow calibration, and blank measurements using a HEPA filter to detect potential leak and verify the instrumental detection limit. In addition, the aethalometer quality assurance procedure will include the leak check to test and quantify the presence potential leaks, the stability test to verify sensors noise, and the optical performance test to check for the detector response at the different operating wavelengths. Both absorption and scattering coefficient measurements are normalized at standard pressure and temperature conditions (1 atm and 0 degC), averaged over a 1-hour period, and provided at all available wavelengths.

Using tabledap to Request Data and Graphs from Tabular Datasets

tabledap lets you request a data subset, a graph, or a map from a tabular dataset (for example, buoy data), via a specially formed URL. tabledap uses the OPeNDAP (external link)

Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link)

and its selection constraints (external link)

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

(easy) You can get data by using the dataset's Data Access Form or Subset form. They make the URL for you.
(easy) You can make a graph or map by using the dataset's Make A Graph form. It makes the URL for you.
(not hard) You can bypass the forms and get the data or make a graph or map by generating the URL by hand or with a computer program or script.

Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of constraints (e.g., variable<value), each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").
