As part of the Measurement of Agriculture Illuminating farm-Zone Emissions of N2O (MAIZE) project, in 2021 the aircraft platform sampled the agriculture regions of Nebraska and Iowa. Vertical profiles were conducted on each flight to capture the vertical structure and mixing depths of the atmosphere. The data files contains the merged data for each individual file day.
