CAR ARMCAS Arctic Cloud Radiation Measurements L1 V1 (CAR_ARMCAS_L1C) at GES DISC

The Arctic Radiation Measurement in Column Atmosphere-surface System (ARMCAS) was a collaborative research effort between the Cloud and Aerosol Research (CAR) Group, Department of Atmospheric Sciences, University of Washington (led by Professor Peter V. Hobbs) and Drs. Michael King and Si-Chee Tsay of NASA/Goddard. The field portion of ARMCAS was based out of Deadhorse, Alaska, from June 3-15, 1995. Flights of the University of Washington's Convair C-131A research aircraft and NASA's ER-2 aircraft took place over the tundra of the North Slope and over the partially ice-covered Beaufort Sea. Several of these flights were closely coordinated in order to provide simultaneous in situ and remote sensing measurements of arctic clouds.

北极辐射柱状大气-地表系统（ARMCAS）是一项由华盛顿大学大气科学系云与气溶胶研究组（由彼得·V·霍布斯教授领导）与NASA戈达德中心的迈克尔·金博士和蔡思奇博士共同进行的协作研究项目。ARMCAS的野外研究部分于1995年6月3日至15日，在阿拉斯加的死马士进行。华盛顿大学的康维尔C-131A研究飞机和NASA的ER-2飞机在北坡苔原和部分冰封的波弗特海上空进行了飞行。其中几架飞行进行了紧密协调，以提供北极云的同步原位和遥感测量。
