摘 要：One of the primary objectives of the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Programs second ARM Mobile Facility (AMF2) is to obtain reliable measurements of radiation (solar, surface, and atmospheric), cloud, and atmospheric properties from ocean-going vessels. To ensure that these climatic measurements are representative and accurate, many AMF2 instrument systems are designed to collect data in a zenith orientation. A pillar of the AMF2 strategy in this effort is the use of a stable platform. The purpose of the platform is to (1) mitigate vessel motion for instruments that require a truly vertical orientation and keep them pointed in the zenith direction and (2) allow for accurate positioning for viewing or shading of the sensors from direct sunlight. Of the numerous ARM instruments that require a zenith orientation, perhaps the most important are the vertically pointing cloud radars, for which vertical motion is a critical parameter.
