The description should include the general work plan and the experimental methods and nature of the measurements to be made. It should include information about the spatial and temporal nature of the data collection, methods for data analysis, and expected final product (e.g., a final report, a publication, etc.). All data from ARM field campaigns must be delivered to the ARM Data Archive within six months of completion of the field campaign.
