Research

Theme 1: Interdisciplinary scientific research for building resilient communities against weather extremes

Under this theme, ASM faculty and students will collaborate with NOAA staff and stakeholders to perform timely and usable research designed to directly support the following WRN Roadmap objectives: “reduced loss of life, property, and disruption from high-impact events; and improved freshwater resource management.”

Theme 2: Innovative observations for advancing the analysis and prediction of weather, climate, and atmospheric chemistry

Within this theme, the ASM seeks to support research and applications that take greater advantage of novel and traditional environmentalobservations particularly those that close observational gaps in NOAA operational network that limit WRN forecast metrics.

Theme 3: Interdisciplinary research in support of building healthy communities

With this theme ASM will pursue collaborative and interdisciplinary research to support the WRN objective on improving air and water quality for healthy communities.
