Scientific Tours


While attending the ICDC7 Conference, you will have a free afternoon on Thursday, September 29. If you are interested, you are invited to tour a local scientific facility (options described below). Bus transportation between the hotel and tour site will be offered. Bus seats are limited, so participation is on a "first come, first served" basis. If you would like to tour one of the facilities listed below, please make your choice here and submit the form by 31 August 2005. You will be contacted by email to confirm participation.

Should you have any questions regarding the tours, please contact Anne Oman at anneoman@ucar.edu


Tours Offered:

  1. NCAR's Research Aviation Facility at Jefferson County Airport (RAF): The mission of the Research Aviation Facility is to develop and operate instrumented research aircraft for the atmospheric science community at a level of sophistication and operational complexity not generally available elsewhere. This facility houses NCAR's C-130 and Gulfstream V research airplanes, airborne CO2, CO, O3, and H2O instrumentation, tower-based CO2 instrumentation, high-precision atmospheric O2 instrumentation, and an O2 and CO2 calibration-transfer facility.
  2. National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL): NREL develops renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies and practices, advances related science and engineering, and transfers knowledge and innovations to address the nation's energy and environmental goals.
  3. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA): NOAA conducts research and gathers data about the global oceans, atmosphere, space and sun, and applies this knowledge to science and service that touch the lives of all Americans. Visitors to the Boulder facility will tour CMDL's working laboratory, analyzing air samples collected worldwide and observe the Space Environment Center's 24/7 operations, forecasting solar activities that affect Earth’s systems. For more information, visit http://www.cmdl.noaa.gov/ccgg/index.html and http://www.spaceweather.noaa.gov/
  4. National Ice Core Laboratory (NICL): Visitors to the 743.2 square meters National Ice Core Laboratory, jointly operated by the National Science Foundation and the United States Geological Survey, will be provided with information on current research projects, view the –35°C ice core storage facility, visit the Class 100 clean room maintained at –22°C, and view thin sections of ice. Currently 1500 meters of ice are in storage from various locations. Full meter imagery and electro-conductivity instruments will be demonstrated and data from the physical properties explained. Please bring a warm coat, hat and gloves on this tour.
