Synopsis
The NOAA National Environmental Satellite Data and Information Service (NESDIS) invites applications for the establishment of a new Cooperative Institute (CI) for Satellite Earth System Studies. This new CI shall undertake a wide range of NOAA activities, primarily supporting the following NOAA Line Offices and Program Offices: the NESDIS Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) and National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI); the Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research's (OAR) Air Resources Laboratory and Climate Program Office; the National Weather Service (NWS); and the National Marine Fisheries Services (NMFS). The new CI will primarily support the NESDIS mission of providing secure and timely access to global environmental data and information from satellites and other sources in order to promote and protect the Nation's security, environment, economy, and quality of life. This will be accomplished by assisting the NOAA science enterprise in transforming the 'bits and bytes" received from satellites and other sources around the globe into information about the environment. The new CI must possess the breadth of expertise and resources necessary to conduct research and development activities that span sensor calibration to product validation, and application development to enable the transfer and visualization of information.
Eligibility
Eligibility is limited to non-Federal public and private non-profit universities, colleges and research institutions that offer accredited graduate-level degree-granting programs in NOAA-related sciences.
