Real-time measurement of submicron aerosol was performed at Prague – Suchdol site (Czech Republic) during six weeks in June and July 2012. Highly time-and-size resolved data were obtained from measurements carried out by a Compact Time-of-Flight Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (C-ToF-AMS, Aerodyne). The retrieved organic data were deconvoluted using the Multilinear Engine (ME-2) algorithm (Paatero, 1999), and analyzed with the newly developed GUI provided by Paul Scherrer Institute (Canonaco et al. in prep.). The preliminary results are presented in this abstract.
