SUMMARY:Seminar on the 2025 Joint Center Research and Development Project (JCRDP)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]Seminar on The 2025 Joint Center Research and Development Project (JCRDP) – Training\, Dry Run & Intensive Observation Period \nDownload Flyer \nDate: September 26\, 2025 from 12pm \nPresenter(s): Dr.  Sen Chiao\, Director of the NOAA Cooperative Science Center in Atmospheric Sciences and Meteorology (NCAS-M) and a Professor of Interdisciplinary Studies at Howard University \nZoom: https://ccny.zoom.us/j/84211573613?pwd=oKXF3GDMatUta9weRD3zTkKXLRjWqH.1 \nAbstract: \nUrban boundary layer dynamics and composition research is an area of overlapping capability and expertise for the two Cooperative Science Centers (CSCs)\, NOAA Center for Earth System Sciences and Remote Sensing Technologies (CESSRST) and NOAA\nCenter for Atmospheric Sciences and Meteorology (NCAS-M). The two Centers have engaged with NOAA NESDIS and NWS\, as well as NOAA Research (NOAA/OAR)\, to design a joint Collaborative Research and Development Project JCRDP with a focus on\ninterdisciplinary research and training on urban meteorology\, air quality\, urban ecosystems\, and communities. This effort brings together the two Centers’ expertise in analysis\, modeling\, and observation capabilities to build a framework to study air\npollution causes and impact in the northeast corridor. \nAbout Presenter: \nSen Chiao is the Director of the NOAA Cooperative Science Center in Atmospheric Sciences and Meteorology (NCAS-M) and a Professor of Interdisciplinary Studies at Howard University. NCAS-M is a research-through-education enterprise led by Howard University and includes seven partner institutions. Before coming to Howard University\, Sen served as the Meteorology and Climate Science department chair at San Jose State University.  His current research work and interests include data analysis and numerical modeling\, with emphasis on mesoscale modeling.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:NOAA Seminar Series: Quantifying the accuracy of satellite-observed sea surface salinity against in situ observations by saildrones
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]\n\n\nTitle: Quantifying the accuracy of satellite-observed sea surface salinity against in situ observations by saildrones \nPresenter(s): Andrew Dixon\, CESSRST II Graduate Fellow  \nGoogle Meet : https://meet.google.com/rxj-wgmk-day \nOr dial: ‪(US) +1 318-367-3080 PIN: ‪865 081 511# \n\nAbstract:  \nSea surface salinity (SSS) regulates upper-ocean stratification\, influencing vertical mixing and the heat exchange critical to the development of tropical cyclones. Satellite salinity observations from NASA’s SMAP observatory offer global coverage and have been validated for general conditions in certain areas\, but benefit from validation under storm conditions. This study uses NOAA Saildrones (uncrewed surface vehicles)\, capable of targeting specific storms and collecting near-continuous data\, to compare in situ SSS with two SMAP products. Results show strong agreement with the 8-day averaged dataset and moderate but positive agreement with the near-real-time product. Collocations during storm encounters indicate that SMAP could be useful in tropical cyclone forecasting. By validating satellite data with uncrewed systems\, this work advances NOAA’s mission of enabling a weather-ready nation through expanded hurricane predictions and fostering collaborations for future satellite data validation projects. \nThe results are from the NOAA EPP/MSI CSCNERTO graduate internship project that was conducted with NOAA mentor\, Dr. Chidong Zhang of NOAA Research’s Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory. The NERTO aligns with NOAA CSC CESSRST-II’s goal of conducting NOAA mission-aligned collaborative research to understand and predict changes in climate\, weather\, oceans\, and coasts. The NERTO “Quantifying the accuracy of satellite observed sea surface salinity against in situ observations by Saildrones” also deepened the intern’s understanding of NOAA’s databases and development steps toward further use of uncrewed systems. \n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
