Abstract
Red Espanola de DMAs Ambientales (REDMAAS), the Spanish network of environmental differential mobility analyzers (DMAs), currently comprises six research groups involved in the measurement of atmospheric aerosol size distributions by means of DMAs. The aim of this network is to guarantee the good quality and comparability of the routine measurements carried out at each location and in diverse environments across Spain. In order to achieve this objective, one of its main activities is the annual intercomparison of mobility size spectrometers used within the network (five units of scanning mobility particle sizers [SMPS] and one ultrafine particle monitor [UFPM]). Here we report the 2main results obtained during the 2010–2012 campaigns, including a study on particle deposition in dryers used in ambient air sampling systems. In general, all instruments showed good performance with deviations in accepted tolerance. The intercomparisons have been proved to be a useful exercise to detect instrument problems, su...
