- VALIDATION: ARM user Chris Bretherton, University of Washington, is lead author on a new report advocating for better U.S. climate models. "... designing the next generation of models will require us to move toward unification and work more closely with the user, academic, and international communities." We agree--that's why ARM data and facilities are available to the global research community!
