************************************ Citing and Acknowledging LASSO Usage ************************************ LASSO-CACTI consists of a suite of data and associated documentation. As such, there are multiple ways to cite it depending on which portions are used. A peer-reviewed overview paper about LASSO-CACTI has not yet been published, so the primary citations at this point are this documentation and the data itself. Note that this documentation is meant to be a living document that will evolve. Notable updates to the documentation will be tracked using version releases. The recommended citation for this documentation is: Gustafson, WI, AM Vogelmann, MM Delgado, S Endo, J Rausch, EK Schumann, AC Varble, and H Xiao. 2023. Description of the LASSO-CACTI Data Set. DOE Atmospheric Radiation Measurement user facility. DOE/SC-ARM-TR-288, https://lasso-cacti-doc.arm.gov/latest/index.html, https://doi.org/10.2172/1905845 The citation for the data files as a whole is: Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility, 2023: LASSO-CACTI Data Set. <>, 32° 7’ 35.076” S, 64° 43’ 42.132” W: Córdoba, Argentina Central Facility (C1). Compiled by WI Gustafson, AM Vogelmann, MM Delgado, S Endo, KL Johnson, J Rausch, EK Schumann, AC Varble, and H Xiao. ARM Data Center: Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA. Data set accessed <> at https://doi.org/10.5439/1905789. At the discretion of users and depending on which portions of the LASSO-CACTI data set are used, one can also cite the individual components of the datastream. Each primary file type has its own Digital Object Identifier (DOI) number, listed in :numref:`TableDOIs` below. The subset file types contain groupings of related variables from the raw WRF output data to permit downloading of a subset of data without having to download all variables at once, as would be done when downloading the wrfout files. .. table:: Digital object identifiers associated with the LASSO-CACTI scenario. :name: TableDOIs =========================== ========= =============== Category Description File Type DOI Number =========================== ========= =============== LASSO-CACTI overarching DOI N/A 10.5439/1905789 LASSO-CACTI documentation N/A 10.2172/1905845 WRF-Hydro soil modeling wrfhydro 10.5439/1988160 WRF inputs tar file wrfin 10.5439/1905809 Raw WRF output wrfout 10.5439/1905810 WRF restart file wrfrst 10.5439/1905811 WRF subsets: aerosol aer 10.5439/1905812 WRF subsets: cloud cld 10.5439/1905813 WRF subsets: cloud HAGL cldhagl 10.5439/1905814 WRF subsets: cloud HAMSL cldhamsl 10.5439/1905816 WRF subsets: cloud Pres. cldpres 10.5439/1905817 WRF subsets: meteorology met 10.5439/1905819 WRF subsets: met.

William Gustafson, the LASSO PI, can advise which team members are responsible for the various aspects of LASSO-CACTI. He can be reached at lasso@arm.gov.
