Overview and Data Submission NCAS-M is committed to NOAA’s data management plan (https://go.usa.gov/c2dZW). All NCAS-M participants are research institutions in which vast amounts of data are collected or produced (see NCAS-M Environmental Observations and Data Elements Table). To ensure that this large quantity of data and data products, which without proper care can be lost, […]
NCAS-M seeks to support research and applications that take greater advantage of novel and traditional environmental observations, particularly those that close observational gaps in the NOAA operational networks that limit WRN forecast metrics. For instance, NCAS-M conducts field campaigns (e.g., NOAA/AEROSE, CSC/Joint Collaboration Project), surface and upper air observations from suburban (HU Beltsville campus) and […]
NCAS-M faculty and students will continue to collaborate with NOAA researchers and stakeholders to perform timely and usable research designed to directly support the following WRN strategic plans: “Reduce the impacts of weather, water, and climate events by transforming the way people receive, understand, and act on information.” Research under this theme will be interdisciplinary […]
NCAS-M will pursue collaborative and interdisciplinary research to support the WRN/IDSS objectives on improving forecast advice and interpretative services that NWS provides to help core partners, such as emergency personnel and public safety officials make decisions when weather, water, and climate impact the lives and livelihoods of the American people.
