| Site Name: | ARM Southern Great Plains site |
| Description: | The ARM SGP Main tower is located at the ARM SGP central facility near Lamont, Oklahoma. The SGP site consists of in situ and remote-sensing instrument clusters arrayed across approximately 55,000 square miles (143,000 square kilometers) in north-central Oklahoma and south-central Kansas. The ARM SGP site is the largest and most extensive climate research field site in the world and can be viewed as a real "laboratory without walls." The surrounding landscape is used solely for agricultural purposes, which routinely undergoes four-stages of development: till, plant, fertilize, and harvest. During 2001 - 2004, the fields were used for wheat production. Beginning in 2005, the fields were switched to corn. Wheat returned in late 2005, followed by soybeans during the latter half of 2006. |
