FedConnect: Opportunity Summary

Description

The mission of ASR is to quantify the interactions among aerosols, clouds, precipitation, and radiation to improve fundamental process-level understanding, with the ultimate goal to reduce the uncertainty in global and regional climate simulations and projections. To accomplish this mission, ASR utilizes continuous long-term datasets that provide measurements of radiation, aerosols, clouds, precipitation, dynamics, and thermodynamics over a range of environmental conditions collected at several fixed and mobile ARM sites situated in climatically diverse locations. These datasets may be supplemented with laboratory studies and shorter-duration ground-based and airborne field campaigns to target specific atmospheric processes under a diversity of locations and atmospheric conditions. The long- and short-term data, together with models, are employed to understand and parameterize the processes that govern the atmospheric components and their interactions over all pertinent scales. Finally, ASR seeks to develop integrated, scale-bridging test-beds for model parameterizations that incorporate this process-level understanding of the life cycles of aerosols, clouds, and precipitation in numerical models.
