Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM)

The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program is a scientific initiative that studies how sunlight and heat move through the Earth's atmosphere. By collecting detailed data on clouds, moisture, temperatures, and radiation, ARM helps scientists understand weather patterns and climate change better. This knowledge improves climate models, leading to more accurate predictions of future climate conditions. ARM operates specialized instruments at various locations worldwide, providing critical information for researchers working to understand and address global climate challenges.
