As a vital component of our mission to make science useful to society, our researchers publish in peer-reviewed journals, participate in news conferences and interviews, and respond to requests by Congress for information about their findings.

While professional journalists strive for accuracy in their reporting, the limited space allotted to news stories often results in statements appearing out of context. Such isolated comments may sometimes skew the author's or speaker's intention.

On the Record presents source material from NCAR and UCAR researchers to provide context and accuracy.

When topics recede from the news, they are archived on this page.
