UCAR is pleased to announce the fourth cohort of the Next Generation Fellows, a program that provides support to rising Earth system science students from underrepresented communities. The 2020 Next Generation Fellows are: Akilah Alwan, diversity and inclusion fellow; Yelizaveta “Liza” Khmara, public policy fellow; Samar Minallah, Earth system science fellow.

NCAR is taking part in a major national initiative to advance artificial intelligence in research and education.

Scientists and educators at NCAR and UCAR have won prestigious honors from one of the nation's leading science organizations: the American Meteorological Society. The awards will be presented during the January 2021 annual meeting of the society.

The University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) joins its sister institutions and colleagues across the geosciences in mourning the loss of Michael Freilich, a luminary whose passion for understanding the interwoven aspects of the Earth system drove the science forward. 

Gilbert, who currently serves as director for the Heliophysics Science Division at the NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center, will join NCAR October 5.
