[Nsa] NCAR Science Advisor nominations

[Rolando Garcia]

Dear colleagues,

As you know, the executive committee of the NCAR Scientists' Assembly 
(NSA) supervises
the NCAR Science Advisor.  This 1/2 time position was created to serve 
as a link between
NCAR management and NCAR scientists; to represent the NSA on the NCAR 
Executive
Committee and Directors' Committee; and to provide advice to the NCAR 
Directorate.
The Science Advisor must be a member of the NSA who does not hold an 
upper management
position (Division Director or above).

The current Science Advisor, Dr. Anne Smith (ACD), will complete her 
term at the end
of this year.  I am therefore soliciting candidates for the position.  
If you or anyone
in your division is interested in volunteering or learning more about 
it, please
contact me or your divisional representative on the NSA Executive 
Committee.

A full description of the Science Advisor position may be found at:

A list of current divisional representatives on the NSA executive 
committee is at:

Let me also take this opportunity to mention that the NSA website has 
recently been
upgraded thanks to the help of Kris Conrad.  There is also a convenient 
link to the NSA
website form the home page of the main NCAR website, 
http://www.ncar.ucar.edu/, under the
"NCAR Organizational Quicklinks" list.

Thanks for your attention, and I hope you will consider applying for 
the Science
Advisor position.

Rolando Garcia
Chair, NSA Exec Committee
