Lead Scientist : Ted Cress

Relevancy to ARM

Field campaigns are important to ACRF because they augment routine data acquisitions and provide researchers with the data they need to conduct their research.

Description of Proposed Campaign

The purpose is to study the anomalous absorption of solar radiation by clouds. The phenomenon was first noticed when satellite measurements of solar radiation absorbed by the surface atmosphere were compared with solar radiation measured at collocated surface sites.
