Version 5.1.8 of the netCDF Operators (NCO) has been released. NCO is an Open Source package that consists of a dozen standalone, command-line programs that take netCDF files as input, then operate (e.g., derive new data, average, print, hyperslab, manipulate metadata) and output the results to screen or files in text, binary, or netCDF formats.
The fifth NOAA AI Workshop on Leveraging Artificial Intelligence in Environmental Sciences will be held September 19–21, 2023 as a virtual gathering coordinated by the NOAA Center for Artificial Intelligence.
Welcome back to AWIPS Tips! This week we're going to take a bit of a deep dive into a useful feature in CAVE: sampling. If you are new to AWIPS Tips, you can take a look at one of our first blogs, which also very briefly touches on sampling at the very end of the blog.
The Unidata Program Center's three summer student interns — Jhamieka Greenwood from Florida State University, Erin Rhoades from Metropolitan State University of Denver, and Jessica Souza from Texas Tech University — have come to the end of their summer appointments. After a summer of dedicated work they presented the results of their projects to the UPC staff on July 27, 2023. You can find videos of their presentations to the UPC staff on the Unidata Seminar Series page.
This summer, I had a fantastic time as a Unidata intern, strengthening my Python and data visualization skills. Even though my internship was fully remote, I was still able to have a great experience and attend many events at UCAR. My mentor, Thomas Martin, and the rest of the Unidata staff were very helpful and always available for guidance during my time with Unidata.
