The [[United States Department of Energy National Laboratories|Department of Energy]]'s '''Atmospheric Radiation Measurement''' ('''ARM''') Program uses state-of-the-art active and passive remote sensing instrumentation to study the fundamental [[physics]] related to interactions between [[cloud]]s and radiative feedback processes in the [[Earth's atmosphere|atmosphere]]. With instrumentation located in three different climate regions around the world, plus a mobile facility for accessing different climates, datasets provided by the ARM Program are used to improve the treatment of clouds and radiation processes in [[climate model]]s.
