an opportunity for Ph.D. scientists to pursue their research
interests in atmospheric and related science. The program also
invites postdoctoral physicists, chemists, applied mathematicians,
computer scientists, engineers, and specialists from related
disciplines such as biology, geology, science education,
economics, and geography, to apply their training to research in
the atmospheric sciences.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
The primary goal of the program is to develop the careers of Ph.D.
graduates. The ASP also encourages independence and creativity
while providing an environment in which fellows collaborate with
and are mentored by experienced scientists at NCAR.</p>

The postdoctoral fellowships provide successful applicants with
considerable freedom to pursue their own research interests. Most
fellows develop research projects in collaboration with NCAR
scientists, but all are expected to choose their own research
directions and are responsible for the design and conduct of their
own projects.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
Research at NCAR includes studies of atmospheric dynamics (on all
scales), climate science, cloud physics, atmospheric chemistry and
radiation, turbulence, upper-atmosphere physics (including
ionosphere studies and aeronomy), solar physics, oceanography, and
societal impacts related to these scientific areas. There are
related programs in atmospheric technology and in computational
science and applied mathematics. The NCAR program also includes
studies of the interaction of the atmosphere with the oceans, the
cryosphere, the earth's surface, and human society. Scientists
that are interested in applying their knowledge of biology,
ecology, geology, economics, and political science to atmospheric
issues are encouraged to apply. An extensive discussion of NCAR
science is featured in the NCAR Annual Scientific Report, which
can be found at<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a

Each fellow in ASP is encouraged to pursue research objectives
which take maximum advantage of the opportunities available at
NCAR. Fellows have direct access to the NCAR computers and the
library, and can obtain appropriate access to other research
facilities by mutual agreement with the appropriate project or
facility. Special needs (e.g., for laboratory facilities) can
often be met but should be arranged in advance through the
appropriate project or facility at NCAR. A description of NCAR
facilities can be accessed at<a

Fellows are expected to participate in ASP activities including
seminars, lecture series, and research reviews and in community
service activities during their term. Fellows are also expected to
be an active member of one of the three standing ASP committees
listed here,<a href="http://www.asp.ucar.edu/pdfp/committees.php"
