With facilities around the world hosting field campaigns on a regular basis, the ARM Climate Research Facility continues to be an important resource to the scientific community. Thanks to the vigilance of the ARM Science Board, the ARM Facility is able to support quality science with over 70 campaigns a year.
Comprised of highly-respected scientists from the external climate research community, this eleven-member group annually reviews up to 20 complex proposals for use of the ARM mobile and aerial facilities. Its mission is to ensure the best science is conducted using the ARM Facility.
This year, the board will be joined by six new members. We want to congratulate and welcome to the Board:
