Description:

Mauna Loa Observatory (MLO) started as a small meteorological station in the early 1950's. It is young in comparison with more established institutions such as Pic du Midi or Davos. But however young, MLO is distinctly set apart from all others by its location and purpose. Its location is unique-high on a mountain thousands of kilometers away from any continental landmass. The environment is one of the cleanest in the world, and thus is ideal for MLO's purpose, which is to monitor constituents in the atmosphere that could cause climatic change.
