The ARM Climate Research Facility is planning to purchase scanning precipitation and scanning cloud radars, wind profilers, lidars (high-spectral resolution, micropulse, Doppler, and Raman), surface flux and aerosol instrumentation, microwave radiometers, and infrared and solar spectrometers. Aircraft instrumentation for clouds and aerosols will be added to ARM’s capabilities. Equipment for a mobile aerosol system for the mobile facility also will be purchased. The ARM Data Archive and site data systems will invest in their infrastructure to support the new data requirements that will result from the purchase of the new instrumentation.
