Data analysis was completed by Beth Nelson and Jim Hopkins at the University of York. Mixing ratios for the following species are included: ethane, ethene, propane, propane, iso-butane, n-butane, acetylene, trans-2-butene, 1-butene, iso-butene*, cis-2-butene, cyclopentane*, iso-pentane, n-pentane, 1,3-butadiene, trans-2-pentene, 1-pentene, n-octane, n-hexane, isoprene, n-heptane, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, combined m,p-xylene, o-xylene, methanol, acetone, ethanol, 1,2-butadiene*, propyne*. Date and time given in Local time as Julian day where 2018 01 01 = 0 Calibrations have been performed using a certified NPL 30 component mixture, and certified NPL 6 component mixture for o-VOC calibration. NOTE: any compound not contained therein has been assumed to have the same response factor as its closest isomer*. The data were collected as part of the DelhiFlux project part of Air Pollution & Human Health in a Developing Indian Megacity (APHH-India) programme.

This dataset contains photolysis rate measurements made during the Pre- Monsoon and Post-Monsoon periods of the APHH Delhi campaigns in 2018 at Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW) site. Photolysis rates are derived from the product of the absorption cross-section of the precursor molecule, the quantum yield of the photo-product and the actinic flux density (cm-2s-1nm-1). The actinic flux is measured between 280 - 650 nm (<1 nm resolution) using a Ocean Optics spectral radiometer attached to a quartz receiver optic. Data is averaged to 1 minute time-stamp. The data were collected as part of the DelhiFlux project part of Air Pollution & Human Health in a Developing Indian Megacity (APHH-India) programme.

This dataset contains direct infusion ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry measurements made at the Institute of Atmospheric Physics land station, Beijing (IAP-Beijing) site during the summer and winter APHH-Beijing campaign for the Atmospheric Pollution & Human Health in a Chinese Megacity (APHH) programme. Daily quartz microfiber filters were collected with a Tisch high volume sampler. The extracted organic fraction of the collected PM2.5 particles was analysed using an LTQ Orbitrap Velos mass spectrometer with electrospray ionisation to obtain high resolution mass spectra which enable the assignment of molecular formulae to the detected masses. For both seasons, 10 filters were analysed, containing the 5 filters with the highest and lowest mass loadings for each season. The files names are labeled according to the ID of the analysed filter. All dates and times are given in Beijing local time.

This dataset includes black carbon mass and number concentrations measurements performed by the University of Manchester with a Single Particle Soot Photometer (SP2) made during the Pre- Monsoon and Post-Monsoon periods of the APHH Delhi campaigns in 2018 at Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW) site. The data were collected as part of the DelhiFlux project part of Air Pollution & Human Health in a Developing Indian Megacity (APHH-India) programme.
