Satellite Climate studies
Dear Colleague,

Announcement of Opportunity for a Cooperative Institute for Satellite
Climate studies.  This Cooperative Institute (CI) will focus on 1)
climate and satellite research and applications, 2) climate and
satellite observations and monitoring, and 3) climate research and
modeling. Through this competition, NOAA intends to establish
competitively a new CI according to the policy and procedures described
in NOAA Administrative Order 216-107 and the Cooperative Institute
Interim Handbook both available at www.nrc.noaa.gov/ci. The proposed CI
should be composed of two or more member institutions (e.g., multiple
Universities). At least one research institution should be in Maryland,
Washington
D.C. or the adjacent states (Delaware, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and
Virginia) and one research institution should be in North Carolina or
the adjacent states (Virginia, Tennessee, South Carolina and Georgia),
