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 that 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.
