2015 Awards

2015 Awards

For the 2015 equipment awards, special consideration will be given to proposals that include one or more of the following:

Unidata's technical staff stands ready to assist with installation and configuration of both servers.  And as always, these special emphases do not preclude other proposals from members of the Unidata community for procuring new computers or upgrading existing classroom and laboratory equipment to integrate Unidata tools and data services in geoscience education and research. 

Additionally, small institutions, academic departments that have not previously submitted proposals to this program, and programs outside Unidata's traditional atmospheric sciences community are particularly encouraged to apply. Proposals from academic institutions outside the United States will be considered. However, preference will be given to academic institutions within the U.S.
