Spying on Thin Ice Clouds
Observations of thin ice clouds are scarce, contributing to a large range of uncertainties in present-day and future simulations of the polar climates. Data from the Thin Ice Clouds in Far Infrared Experiment, or TICFIRE, and ARM’s Barrow facility will help to develop a new spaced-based instrument in collaboration with the Canadian Space Agency to…

Reconfiguring ARM: Arctic Eyes in the Sky
The Inaugural Campaigns for ARM Research using Unmanned Systems—or ICARUS—is underway at Oliktok Point, Alaska. In response to researcher input, ICARUS was developed as the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Climate Research Facility’s first initiative to begin routine operations using unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and tethered balloon systems (TBS) to collect spatial information about the rapidly…
