A statement is from Antonio Busalacchi, president of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR).

NSF NCAR is continuing to improve targeted forecasts of weather impacts on roads and runways

NASA has selected the Chromospheric Magnetism Explorer (CMEx) for an extended period of concept development.

NSF NCAR was selected by NASA to construct a breadbox-sized satellite that will give scientists a powerful new tool to observe the Sun’s chromosphere, a poorly understood region of the solar atmosphere where the energy that powers solar storms builds up before being released.

This November through February, a specialized laser instrument that measures atmospheric gases is hitching a ride on regularly scheduled flights to and from McMurdo Station in Antarctica. The instrument will collect information about how much carbon dioxide is going in and out of the Southern Ocean for a project called the Southern Ocean Carbon Gas Observatory (SCARGO).
