{{Short description|US Department of Energy scientific facility}}

The '''Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Research Facility''' ('''ARM Research Facility''') is a multi-laboratory [[United States Department of Energy]] scientific user facility used for national and international global climate research efforts.

The ARM Research Facility consists of three heavily instrumented fixed-location atmospheric observatories and mobile and aerial research facilities that measure radiative properties of the atmosphere, particularly cloud and aerosol formation processes.<ref>{{cite web|title=ARM About|url=http://www.arm.gov/about}}</ref> Continuous data from these sites, as well as supplemental data obtained through intensive field research campaigns, are available to scientists online through the ARM Data Archive. ARM is collaboratively managed by nine DOE national laboratories.<ref>{{cite web|title=National Labs|url=http://www.arm.gov/about/organization/labs}}</ref>
