Summary
Abstract: The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program conducted a Cloud
Intensive Operational Period (IOP) in March 2000 that was the
first-ever effort to document the 3-dimensional cloud field from
observational data. Prior numerical studies of solar radiation
propagation through the atmosphere in the presence of clouds have been
limited by the necessity to use ... View entire text
