NSF NCAR & UCAR
@ncar-ucar.bsky.social
We're committed to advancing our understanding of Earth system science, from the ocean to the exosphere, for the betterment of our planet. 🌎 Operated by UCAR and #NSFfunded.
Developed over 50 years ago at NSF NCAR, dropsondes help to shape forecasts and inform communities of approaching hazards & NSF NCAR researchers are continuously working to improve dropsonde technology to help people stay safe when hurricanes approach.

NSF NCAR was established to provide the university community with world-class facilities and services that were beyond the reach of any individual institution, and it’s something we have continued and expanded to this day!

The team aimed not only to get a better picture of the air in and around NYC– where ocean, city, and forests converge– but also how pollution ebbs and flows in 24 hours. NSF NCAR pilots would fly the plane, a “flying lab” with research equipment, at both high and low altitudes to collect data.
