NOAA is offering the Collaborative Science, Technology, and Applied Research (CSTAR) Program to facilitate the transition of research into operational meteorological services. This grant supports collaborative projects between forecasters and academic institutions, aiming to enhance forecast accuracy and environmental hazard warnings. Aligned with NOAA’s Mission Goal 3: Weather Ready Nation, the program engages researchers and students in applied research beneficial to the meteorological community. While promoting scientific knowledge application, the grant does not mandate NOAA testbed collaborations. Researchers are encouraged to apply by the closing date on Jan 4, 2017.
