3-years of (O)VOC and ozone concentration measurements at a mixed temperate forest at the Vielsalm ICOS ecosystem station (Belgium)

This dataset contains (oxygenated) volatile organic compound ((O)VOC) and ozone concentration measurements obtained at the ICOS ecosystem site in Vielsalm, Belgium. Air was sampled sequentially from 7 different points distributed between 3 and 51 m above ground level. The (O)VOC concentration data were obtained using a PTR-ToF-MS 4000 instrument (Ionicon Analytik GmbH, Austria). Ozone concentration data were obtained using a T400 UV Absorption ozone analyser (Teledyne Technologies Inc, CA, USA).

Detailed site description, characterization of the site, and ancillary measurements performed by the ICOS network, can be found in the ICOS portal, BE-Vie station webpage.
