Kim Fewless will lead a project designed to bridge communities across UCAR, NSF NCAR, UCP, and university partners as well as engage with practitioners, policy makers, the private sector, and/or nongovernmental organizations, with a focus on water systems and their predictability.

Check out the latest release of the FastEddy® 4.0, a groundbreaking, open source GPU-based model for numerical modeling of complex microscale flows.

Six researchers at the U.S. National Science Foundation National Center for Atmospheric Research (NSF NCAR) and the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) have been recognized with fellowships and awards from two prestigious Earth and space science organizations. 

As extreme heat continues to pose a growing threat to communities across the US, the NSF NCAR GIS Program recently hosted two events aimed at deepening understanding and strengthening response strategies.

Using satellite observations to evaluate forest recovery following a wildfire could be an innovative, cost-efficient way to assess the effectiveness of land management practices, according to research published earlier this year. 

A prototype turbulence detection system is designed to guide aircraft worldwide from areas of rough air.

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.

We are pleased to announce the release of the FastEddy® 3.0, a groundbreaking, open source GPU-based model for numerical modeling of complex microscale flows.

This coupled model will allow NOAA to forecast the growth and direction of burning wildland fires. Knowing the location of active fires from satellite retrievals, this information, together with the new UFS capability (SRW v3.0.0), gives NOAA the ability to provide timely and accurate fire weather, fire behavior, and smoke-forecast guidance to safeguard lives and property and manage downstream air-quality impacts.
