The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Societal Impacts Program (SIP) is pleased to announce that we will host a Summer 2008 WAS*IS workshop, contingent upon funding, Aug. 7-15, 2008, in Boulder, Colorado. Due to potential funding limitations, participants may be asked to cover some of their own costs. To apply for the Summer 2008 workshop, please read the application requirements and instructions, posted here.
An article about WAS*IS, authored by NCAR's Julie Demuth, Rebecca Morss and Jeff Lazo; Eve Gruntfest of the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs; and Sheldon Drobot of
the Colorado Center for Astrodynamics Research was published in the November 2007 edition of the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society (BAMS). Please click here to read the article.
WAS*IS has a "new" Web site. As part of this Web site, all WAS*ISers have their own personal WAS*IS Web page. An announcement with instructions on how to update the information on your personal Web Page will be sent out soon to the WAS*IS email list. The Web site will also soon feature a WAS*IS project page, which will contain detailed information about ongoing and past WAS*IS collaborative projects and their team members.
