Program History
1/1/2005		Changed carbon analysis instrument from DRI/OGC to Model 2001 Thermal/Optical Carbon Analyzer. Changed analysis protocol from IMPROVE to IMPROVE_A.
1/1/2004		Changed module B filter supplier from Osmonics to Pall-Gelman
10/1/2002		Standardized XRF run times at 1000 seconds
6/1/2002		Changed from quarterly to monthly medians to estimate artifact corrections from field blanks and secondary filters
12/1/2001		Analysis of elements with atomic weights from Na to Mn was changed from PIXE to XRF by Cu anode.
4/5/2001		Ion samples extracted using DI water at all sites
10/11/2000		Ion samples extracted using anion eluent at all sites except GRSM1, SHEN1, and DOSO1 where extraction is with DI water.
1/28/1999		Ion samples extracted using DI water at all sites
6/1/1997		Ion samples extracted using DI water at GRSM1, SHEN1, DOSO1. All other sites extracted with anion eluent.
10/1/1996		Changed nylon filter manufactures from Gleman to MSI
6/1/1996		Added glycerin to Module B denuder (NEED TO GET SITE SPECIFIC DATES!!)
5/23/1995		Ion analysis switched to Research Triangle Institute (RTI). Ion samples extracted using anion eluent.
4/19/1995		Module A filter area changed from 2.2 sq. cm to 3.5 sq. cm
6/28/1994		Changed nylon filter size from 47mm diameter to 25mm (NEED TO GET SITE SPECIFIC DATES!!)
3/1/1994		Optical absorption measurement changed from Laser Integrating Plate Method (LIPM) to Hybrid Integrating Plate/Sphere Analysis (HIPS).
6/1/1992		Analysis of elements with atomic weights from Fe to Pb was changed from PIXE to XRF by Mo anode, decreasing their minimum detection limits (MDL). The cyclotron time for the PIXE analysis was reduced increasing the MDLs for elements below FE.
9/15/1990		Ion analysis contractor switched from Research Triangle Institute (RTI) to Global Geochemistry Company (GGC). Ion samples extracted using anion eluent.
