Publications for each division are located at the end of the division's report.
Summary: This report provides an overview of all major research programs involving NCAR staff and university collaborators. Each divisional chapter opens with a summary of significant accomplishments for FY 92 and is followed by a list of staff and visiting scientists and their publications for the year.Summary: The National Center for Atmospheric Research has a twofold scientific mission: to pursue research questions confronting the atmospheric sciences and to support the research of the university community by providing major computing facilities, observational platforms, and instrumentation. Science programs are carried out by four scientific divisions: Atmospheric Chemistry, Climate and Global Dynamics, Mesoscale and Microscale Meteorology, and the High Altitude Observatory. The Atmospheric Technology and Scientific Computing divisions develop, operate, and maintain research facilities.Summary: There are three further programs: The Advanced Study Program selects and places graduate and postdoctoral fellows from numerous disciplines who wish to pursue postgraduate work here at NCAR. Scientists in the Environmental and Societal Impacts Group research the societal impacts of climate change, both naturally occurring and anthropogenic. The Research Applications Program, with major funding from the Federal Aviation Administration, is working to improve predictions of a variety of weather hazards that affect aviation and to develop forecasting and visualization products for the aviation industry.Summary: In addition, activities that support NCAR's mission to advance the state of science education take place in several divisions. They are described in this report's final chapter.Summary: Publications for each division are located at the end of the division's report.Summary: This institution is dedicated, in partnership with the universities, to excellence in the atmospheric and related sciences, to the benefit to mankind.

This report provides an overview of all major research programs involving NCAR staff and university collaborators. Each divisional chapter opens with a summary of significant accomplishments for FY 92 and is followed by a list of staff and visiting scientists and their publications for the year.

The National Center for Atmospheric Research has a twofold scientific mission: to pursue research questions confronting the atmospheric sciences and to support the research of the university community by providing major computing facilities, observational platforms, and instrumentation. Science programs are carried out by four scientific divisions: Atmospheric Chemistry, Climate and Global Dynamics, Mesoscale and Microscale Meteorology, and the High Altitude Observatory. The Atmospheric Technology and Scientific Computing divisions develop, operate, and maintain research facilities.

There are three further programs: The Advanced Study Program selects and places graduate and postdoctoral fellows from numerous disciplines who wish to pursue postgraduate work here at NCAR. Scientists in the Environmental and Societal Impacts Group research the societal impacts of climate change, both naturally occurring and anthropogenic. The Research Applications Program, with major funding from the Federal Aviation Administration, is working to improve predictions of a variety of weather hazards that affect aviation and to develop forecasting and visualization products for the aviation industry.

In addition, activities that support NCAR's mission to advance the state of science education take place in several divisions. They are described in this report's final chapter.

Publications for each division are located at the end of the division's report.

This institution is dedicated, in partnership with the universities, to excellence in the atmospheric and related sciences, to the benefit to mankind.
