Scope and Contents
Note: A digitized version of this sound recording is available in the OpenSky digital repository, under the title "Introduction to NCAR/UCAR." The recording was labeled "English Tour." The title was changed in the digital repository to more clearly represent the content of the recording.
This audio recording provides an overview of NCAR/UCAR's research mission, projects, and facilities. Topics covered include: atmospheric research, field projects, the Monsoon Experiment, CRAY-1 and computing, acid rain, climate research, satellites, hail research, and the Scientific Balloon Facility in Palestine, Texas. Note: Sound recording is undated, but estimated date is circa 1980s, based on projects described in recording (Monsoon Experiment and Solar Maximum satellite). This seems to be the soundtrack of a film.
