PROJECT TITLE
Numerical Modeling of Atmospheric Data of SIMVaC.

GOALS
To provide a teaching tool for undergraduate/graduate students:
To enhance research development at UNC Charlotte (UNCC) and UNC Asheville (UNCA); and
To augment weather prediction capabilities in the Western North Carolina (WNC).

STRATEGY
To perform simulations of the atmosphere using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) numerical model for the Western North Carolina (WNC).

ADMINISTRATION
This project is part of SIMVaC (Scientific Innovations in Numerical Modeling, Digital Visualization and High speed Connectivity in Western North Carolina), that is supported by UNCOP (University of North Carolina, Office of the President).   This project is administered by the National Environmental Modeling and Analysis Center (NEMAC).

This project is a joint project by the Department of Geography & Earth Sciences (GES) of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC) and the Department of Atmospheric Sciences (ATMS) of the University of North Carolina at Asheville (UNCA).

STAFF
The project leaders are Dr. Brian Etherton of UNCC and Dr. Alex Huang of UNCA.  The graduate student working on this project is Mr. Chris Blanton of UNCC.  Several undergraduate students at UNCA also participate in this research.   Dr. Doug Miller of UNCA provides technical and research support. 

Daniel O'Leary (Project Manger of SIMVaC) and Dr. John Stevens (Acting Director of NEMAC) provide leadership and administration to the SIMVaC.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The support of the Office of the President of the University of North Carolina (UNCOP) is acknowledged and greatly appreciated.
