Short summary
We have developed and tested an instrument that quantitatively detects particulate nitrate. Gas-phase reactive nitrogen species are denuded using an active-carbon surface and particle nitrate is converted to NO2, which is detected using cavity-ringdown-spectroscopy. Key to accurate measurement of particulate nitrate is drying of the sampled air. Excellent agreement with an aerosol-mass-spectrometer indicates that the instrument detects both organic and inorganic nitrate particle mass accurately.
