Description
The
CSTAR Program represents an NOAA/NWS effort to create a cost-effective transition
from basic and applied research to operations and services through
collaborative research between operational forecasters and academic
institutions which have expertise in the environmental sciences. These
activities will engage researchers and students in applied research of interest
to the operational meteorological community and will improve the accuracy of
forecasts and warnings of environmental hazards by applying scientific
knowledge and information to operational products and services. The NOAA CSTAR
Program is a contributing element of the U.S. Weather Research Program (USWRP).
NOAA's program is designed to complement other agency contributions to that
national effort. The CSTAR Program addresses NOAA's Mission Goal 3--Serve
society's needs for weather and water information.
