Site
Description:
|
- Mauna Loa Observatory (MLO) is located on the northern slope of the Mauna Loa Volcano on the Island of Hawaii at an elevation of 11,140 ft (3.4 km). MLO is the main calibration site for AERONET reference instruments due to its high altitude and isolation from most local and regional sources of aerosols.
