Using ARM Measurements to Improve the Simulated Vertical Distribution of Arctic Aerosols in the Community Atmosphere Model: Final Technical Report

The main accomplishments achieved under this project were: (1) assessing the utility of high spectral resolution lidar (HSRL) measurements from Barrow to determine vertical profiles of aerosols in the Arctic, (2) identifying ways to improve simulations of the vertical profile of black carbon in the...
