Laboratory Studies And Atmospheric Observations: Projects

CLARS
CLARS is an observing facility for the measurement of greenhouse gases and pollutant emissions from sources in the South Coast Air Basin.
Laser Communications Relay Demonstration (LCRD)
Laser Communications Relay Demonstration (LCRD)
Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change (NDACC)
The international Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change (NDACC) is composed of more than 70 high-quality, remote-sensing research stations.
PREFIRE (Polar Radiant Energy in the Far-InfraRed Experiment)
The Polar Radiant Energy in the Far-InfraRed Experiment (PREFIRE), externally led by UW-Madison, will quantify the radiative processes effected by changing temperatures in the Arctic.
Table Mountain Observatory – Optical Astronomy (TMO)
Table Mountain Observatory – Optical Astronomy (TMO)
Tropospheric Ozone Lidar Network (TOLNet)
The primary scientific objective is to provide time/height ozone measurements from near the surface to the top of the troposphere to describe in high-fidelity their spatio-temporal distribution.
