Proceedings of the Fourth Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Science Team Meeting
This document contains the summaries of papers presented at the 1994 Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Science Team meeting held in Charleston, South Carolina. To put these papers in context, it is useful to consider the history and status of the ARM Program at the time of the meeting. The history of the project has several themes. First, the Program has from its very beginning attempted to respond to most critical scientific issues facing the United States Global Change Research Program. Second, the Program has been strongly coupled to other agency and international programs. The Program reflects an unprecedented collaboration among the various elements of the national research community, including a significant level of cooperation among the U.S. Department of Energy`s (DOE) national laboratories. Next, ARM has always attempted to make the most judicious use of its resources by collaborating and leveraging existing assets and has managed to maintain an aggressive schedule despite budgets that have been much smaller than planned. Finally, the Program has attracted some of the very best scientific talent in the climate research community and has, as a result, been very productive scientifically. This introduction covers the first three points-the papers themselves speak to the last point. Selected papers are indexed separately for inclusion in the Energy Science and Technology Database.
