ARM Education Takes Part in International Digital Library

 
Published: 19 May 2002

The ARM Education team has recently completed writing a proposal to the National Science Foundation (NSF) International Digital Library (IDL) Program. This proposal titled, "An International Digital Library for Atmospheric Visualization" is a collaboration between the ARM Education Program at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Christopher Klaus at Argonne National Laboratory, Keith Andrew at Eastern Illinois University (EIU), Chad Bahrmann at Pennsylvania State University (PSU), Gerald Mace at the University of Utah, Peter May at the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, and Steve Siems at Monash University. If this proposal is funded, we will work on creating a cutting-edge, long-term, international digital library contribution of new atmospheric data visualizations used by teachers, students, and scientists around the world. This IDL project will focus on the United States, Australia, and the Pacific, with educational materials created and international and national teacher workshops held annually.
