The ARM Climate Research Facility received a mention on the EIN News service thanks to its role in the Storm Peak Lab Cloud Property Validation Experiment (STORMVEX).

The second ARM Mobile Facility helped collect data on cloud and precipitation patterns during the five-month STORMVEX campaign, which took place in the winter of 2010 to 2011 in Colorado’s Park Range, a mountain range in the Rocky Mountains. According to a recent search, the study is connected to at least 11 journal articles, four reports, and three theses. The most recently published research, from February 2017, used STORMVEX data to track how the trans-Pacific transport of African and Asian dust influences North American aerosol properties.
