Abstract
Atmospheric aerosols play a large role in the Earth´s radiation budget, but their specific radiative forcing effects vary wildly depending upon species, altitude and geographic location. A suite of instruments has been developed and deployed at Montana State University in Bozeman for the purpose of conducting altitude-resolved atmospheric aerosol studies.
