The AWT actively engages in the research-to-operations process by supporting applied research, verifying the quality and scientific validity of new techniques and products, and providing a common venue for both forecasters and researchers to engage in developing and testing state-of-the art aviation weather services. The AWC and AWT collaborate with universities, governmental forecast centers and research laboratories, FAA and other aviation partners, International Meteorological Watch Offices, and other NOAA and NWS organizations. The AWC maintains 24×7 global forecasting and warning operations, and the AWT supports aviation meteorology hazards training, applied research, and transitioning research-to-operations. CIRA is a collaborating partner with the AWC on a number of research projects and activities. CIRA professionals assist the AWC/AWT in supporting, developing, testing, and transitioning aviation weather research into NWS operations. |
Position Summary | This position is designed for a first-level, introductory Meteorological scientist and operational support staff member, with potential for considerable growth. The individual in this position will report to an on-site CIRA Supervisor at AWC and work closely with NWS federal collaborators, aviation partners, and a federal advisor to improve NWS aviation weather services by using research to create, test, and implement meteorological tools. |
