dc.descriptionDataset abstract The authors would highly appreciate to be contacted if the data is used for any purpose. We measured aerosol particle number concentration with a condensation particle counter CPC model TSI 3022 at a time resolution of 10 seconds during the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE). We report five-minute averaged data cleaned from exhaust gas influence. The lower cut-off of the CPC is 7 nm. Temporal coverage of the dataset is from December 20, 2016 to April 10, 2017. The total particle number concentration reflects aerosol particles from a variety of sources and processes. The concentrations include for example sea spray aerosol, long-range transported particles, newly formed particles and others. The variability in the concentration reflects processes such as wet removal through precipitation, new particle formation or sea spray formation. Dataset contents ACESPACE_aerosol_particle_concentration.csv, data file, comma-separated values data_file_header.txt, metadata, text README.md, metadata, text NaN values of aerosol particle number concentration denote missing values because of e.g., ship exhaust contamination, maintenance, instrument failure. For latitude and longitude, NaN values are noted in cases where position data was not available for the given time period.
