Draft ATM long-range plan 
Available for review

The Atmospheric Sciences Division (ATM) of the National Science 
Foundation is in the process of developing long-range plans for the 
ATM-supported community, including universities and NCAR.  
Pamela Stephens (NSF) is chairing a committee whose other members 
are Guy Brasseur (NCAR), Richard Carbone (NCAR), Robert Dickinson 
(University of Arizona), Timothy Killeen (University of Michigan), 
Robert Robinson (ATM), and Gabor Vali (University of Wyoming).  A 
draft of the plan will be completed in mid-March and will be sent to 
university departments and faculty for review and comment.  The 
final plan, which will be for the period covering FY 1996Ð2000, will be 
published in the summer.

ATM invites comment on the plan and has set up a special Internet 
mailbox for that purpose, atm-lrp@nsf.gov.  Comments should be 
submitted by 30 April.  If you do not receive a copy of the plan from 
your department, you can request one via this mailbox.
