As the world warms, mountain snowpack will not only melt earlier, it will also melt more slowly, according to a new study by NCAR scientists.

The new trustees add breadth and depth of expertise to the leadership of UCAR's 110-member university consortium.

The Intermediate Complexity Atmospheric Research Model (ICAR) gives researchers increased accuracy using only a tiny fraction of the computing resources.

NCAR has created two apps: one using virtual-reality and one using augmented-reality techniques to create 3D visualizations of data sets on a globe.

Scientists this winter are using aircraft, radars, snow gauges, and computer models to determine the impact of cloud seeding.
