This appendix outlines the procedure carried out by the Locale Recommendation Team, as developed by the Site Selection Team and the ARM Management Team at a facilitated planning meeting held in La Jolla, California, July 30 and 31, 1990.
Locales are reasonably compact and contiguous.
The ensemble of selected locales should stress the models by spanning the domain of the radiation-influencing attributes. The climatological and surface attributes should be homogeneous within each of the locales-except when intentionally not so. Logistics and synergism with other programs should be considered.
