J. Hannigan and I. Ortega and M. Coffey (ret) (NCAR) – Bruker 120M (250cm OPD) installed at South Mountain in 1999 in bldg. 1985, operating under autonomous control. Instrument was moved to bldg. 1971 (1km from previous location at same altitude) in Summer 2011. In May 2015 a new Bruker 125HR FTIR (also 250cm OPD) operating with new software control and new solar tracker was installed. |
