The ARM Mobile Facility (AMF) is part of the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) ARM Climate Research Facility (ACRF), a national user facility for the purpose of providing this unique asset for the study of global change to the broader national and international research community (www.arm.gov). ESRL is funded by ACRF to serve as Instrument Mentor for the AMF Aerosol Observing Sytem.

The ARM Mobile Facility is funded and operated by the Department of Energy/Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (DOE/ARM) program. NOAA/ESRL/GMD serves as a mentor for the ARM aerosol observing systems (AOS).

The ARM Mobile Facility (AMF) offers the opportunity to deploy an aerosol observing system in multiple locations with a variety of aerosol conditions.

• The first deployment (April-September, 2005) was during the MArine Stratus Radiation Aerosol and Drizzle (MASRAD) campaign.
