Pieternel Levelt, director of NSF NCAR's chemistry lab, has been honored as a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Researchers at the U.S. National Science Foundation National Center for Atmospheric Research (NSF NCAR) have developed an innovative tool for reliable, year-round testing to evaluate the performance of aircraft deicing fluids in snow conditions.

Members of the public are invited to attend a hailstorm field day that will kick-off the In-situ Collaborative Experiment for the Collection of Hail In the Plains (ICECHIP). ICECHIP is the first U.S. hail-focused field campaign in over 40 years. For six weeks, researchers will chase hailstorms in order to collect data that will be instrumental in advancing hail detection, improving forecast models and strengthening public warning systems.

New AI modeling platform aims to make it easier to use AI to address science questions at the frontiers of weather research and to allow more researchers to contribute back to expanding the capabilities of AI weather modeling.

A new art exhibit, Exploring Art Through Water, will debut at the Mesa Laboratory on the campus of the U.S. National Science Foundation National Center for Atmospheric Research (NSF NCAR) during a reception on Friday, May 9. The juried show is a collaboration between Friends of the National Center, Museum of Boulder, and the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) Center for Science Education.
