  • Appendices Due to Concerns Over the Quality of the Data Collected
    APPENDIX A WSU 2014-19 STRATEGIC PLAN Appendix A: WSU Strategic Plan 2014-15 Strategic Plan 2014-2019 President Elson S. Floyd, Ph.D. Strategic Plan 2014-2019 Introduction The 2014-19 strategic plan builds on the previous five-year plan, recognizing the core values and broad mission of Washington State University. Goals and strategies were developed to achieve significant progress toward WSU’s aspiration of becoming one of the nation’s leading land-grant universities, preeminent in research and discovery, teaching, and engagement. The plan emphasizes the institution’s unique role as an accessible, approachable research institution that provides opportunities to an especially broad array of students while serving Washington state’s broad portfolio of social and economic needs. While providing exceptional leadership in traditional land-grant disciplines, Washington State University adds value as an integrative partner for problem solving due to its innovative focus on applications and its breadth of program excellence. The plan explicitly recognizes the dramatic changes in public funding that have occurred over the duration of the previous strategic plan, along with the need for greater institutional nimbleness, openness, and entrepreneurial activity that diversifies the University’s funding portfolio. In addition, the plan reaffirms WSU’s land-grant mission by focusing greater attention system-wide on increasing access to educational opportunity, responding to the needs of Washington state through research, instruction, and outreach, and contributing to economic development and public policy. While the new plan retains the four key themes of the previous plan, its two central foci include offering a truly transformative educational experience to undergraduate and graduate students and accelerating the development of a preeminent research portfolio.

  • FY96 NCAR ASR Highlights
    FY96 NCAR ASR Highlights 1996 ASR Highlights Highlights of NCAR's FY96 Achievements These are the most significant highlights from each NCAR division and program. Atmospheric Chemistry Division Highlights data missing Atmospheric Technology Division Highlights AVAPS/GPS Dropsonde System The development of the advanced Airborne Vertical Atmospheric Profiling System (AVAPS)/GPS Dropsonde System was close to completion at the end of FY 96. This work has been supported by NOAA and the Deutsche Forschungsanstalt fuer Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR, Germany). AVAPS has now progressed to the point where all the NOAA data systems (two four-channel systems plus spares for the NOAA G-IV aircraft and two four-channel systems plus spares for the NOAA P-3 aircraft) have been delivered, and the initial flight testing has been completed. Both high-level (45,000-foot-altitude) and low-level (22,000-foot-altitude) drop tests have been completed, including intercomparison tests in which sondes were dropped from both the G-IV and the P-3s. Data taken by the AVAPS system on the G-IV and by a second system installed in a leased Lear 36 aircraft are expected to play a key role in the Fronts and Atlantic Storm Tracks Experiment (FASTEX), scheduled for early 1997. The DLR four-channel AVAPS system is currently being built and will be installed on the DLR Falcon aircraft in March 1997. NCAR has transferred the technology to the public sector by licensing a commercial firm (Vaisala, Inc.) to build future GPS sondes and data systems. This effort is led by Hal Cole and Terry Hock.
