The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Climate Facility's Science Team are major contributors to radiation and cloud research. ARM-sponsored investigators publish about 150 refereed journal articles per year, and ARM data are used in many studies published by other scientific organizations. In addition, the annual ARM Science Team Meeting attracts 250 to 300 attendees, with over 200 posters representing recently completed or ongoing science projects. Proceedings from the Science Team meeting are then published on the website. These documented research efforts represent tangible evidence of ARM's contribution to advances in almost all areas of atmospheric radiation and many areas of cloud research.
Many other documents are prepared by members of the ARM Climate Research Facility to help guide the direction of the program and track progress. These publications include planning documents, status reports, and conference presentations.
ARM also develops public information materials to communicate the purpose and objectives of the program to general audiences, while ARM's Education and Outreach center focuses on providing learning materials for classrooms and the communities that host ARM's field research sites.

In 2006, the ARM Mobile Facility was deployed to Niamey, Africa, for the RADAGAST campaign as part of the ongoing African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analysis (AMMA) study. To further the data analyses from this deployment and identify additional areas for future study, researchers from the University of Niamey are now teaming with the site scientist team [...]
