Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program at Princeton
Description: We invite you to participate in Princeton�s Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program which offers a combination of courses and interdisciplinary research on a wide range of environmental topics related to weather and climate. Our interests cover natural and human-induced phenomena, from daily changes in the weather, to global warming over the next century (should the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases continue to rise), to the recurrent Ice Ages that our planet experienced in the distant past. Because of our close ties to the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory of NOAA, our facilities include supercomputers for the realistic simulation of atmospheric and oceanic motion. Because we are part of the Department of Geosciences of Princeton University, some of our faculty members participate in field programs (in the tropical oceans, and in Antarctica for example), while others perform laboratory experiments to explore the bio-geochemistry that determines the fate of the carbon dioxide we are injecting into the atmosphere. Our association with Princeton�s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs enables us to participate in the design of policies to cope with regional and global environmental problems.

Center for Science and Technology Policy Research
Description: The Center for Science and Technology Policy Research was initiated within the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) at the University of Colorado-Boulder in the summer of 2001 as a contribution both to the CIRES goal of �promoting science in service to society� and to the University�s vision of establishing research and outreach across traditional academic boundaries. The Center is a response to an inc reased demand by public and private decision makers for �usable� scientific information. Such information can serve decisions that have a scientific component or decisions about the structures, organizations, and priorities of science itself. At the same time, scientists have become increasingly interested in research problems that require the input of more than just a single traditional discipline. Science and technology policy research provides a mechanism to reconcile these two closely related - but not identical - trends. Such research focuses on �problems� and �decisions� to provide information that is useful and relevant in decision making. The focus on problems and decisions sets science and technology policy research apart from other efforts to integrate knowledge across traditional disciplines.

Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry Department
Description: Scientists in the Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry (MC&G) Department were extremely active in 2004 analyzing the chemical composition of the ocean, and its constituent sediments, rocks, and biota. While laboratory studies, modeling, and remote sensing of the ocean all are important to many of our staff, what stands out in 2004 was the wide range and number of field programs. Jeff Seewald, Katrina Edwards, and Wolfgang Bach conducted research cruises to undersea hot spots in the Pacific, where chemical and microbiological transformations at high temperature and pressure take place in and around underwater volcanic systems. Such sites are accessible several miles below the surface only by remote samplers and underwater submersibles that take measurements and collect samples for analyses.

Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory
Description: GFDL's mission is to be a world leader in the production of timely and reliable knowledge and assessments on natural climate variability and anthropogenic changes and in the development of the required earth system models. GFDL works cooperatively in NOAA to advance its expert assessments of changes in national and global climate through research, improved models, and products.
