NOAA Federated Aerosol Network (NFAN)
The NOAA Federated Aerosol Network (NFAN) monitors surface in-situ aerosol optical properties at field sites around the world. At a subset of NFAN sites, aerosol microphysical and chemical properties are also measured in collaboration with partner organizations.
For an overview and information about the NFAN see:
