You can see @agu.org's letter to NSF to get an idea about why it's important to keep NCAR intact:

This should be the biggest weather and climate news on your radar today.
You can send an email today to say why dismantling NCAR is a bad idea for everyone: NSF_NCAR@nsf.gov
My latest for @science.org on the fraught future of NCAR as NSF's deadline nears. It can still go so many ways.
It's me, sitting on my couch doing my little crosswords and communing with lock-picking trash pandas everywhere 🧪 www.scientificamerican.com/article/racc...
Putin gives intelligence to the Iranians so they can better target the US and we reward him.
Trump Removes Sanctions on Russia to Help Oil Flow Amid Iran Conflict www.nytimes.com/2026/03/12/u...
Done!
Oil isn’t getting through the Strait of Hormuz but sunlight and wind are.
This is potentially huge. A whistleblower reported that OMB officials proposed transferring NCAR’s space weather program to a private, for-profit company, violating NSF’s public comment period and statutory limits.
My bike commute to work has gotten so expensive since the war started. Just kidding, it's free.
It was, but it didn't work. Instead, it limits competition and mainly benefits a few large shipping companies. It has raised prices for consumers, especially in Hawaiʻi, Alaska, and Puerto Rico. By shrinking the fleet it was meant to protect, it increased truck traffic and CO₂ emissions.
Dismantling NCAR would undermine US national security, properity and health.

The climate impacts of fossil fuel CO₂ will last longer than nuclear waste.
Same goes for Spain, Argentina, France, England, Brazil, Portugal, Netherlands, Morocco, Belgium, Germany, Croatia, Senegal, Italy, Colombia, Uruguay, Switzerland, and Japan. 🙃
Of all the good and bad things the Trump regime has done (just kidding there were no good things), DOGE will probably be the most destructive and we can’t ever let Elon Musk off the hook for that.
This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon.

Anything in your book about what happens if you butter the back of a cat before dropping?
Not too late
Oceanography, and specifically air-sea gas exchange in coastal and inland seas.
NSF's annual budget was $9.06 billion for both FY 2024 and 2025.
"Greg Gbur, a physicist and cat-falling expert at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte…"
Yes, a cat-falling expert.
Also, that look on the cat's face.
My student Ryo Dobashi defended his PhD today and somehow everyone is congratulating me so I’ve been saying, “yes, it’s all me” when I did almost nothing.
You can read Ryo’s latest paper here: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...
You're on the list!
Who gets protected and who doesn't? Where a sea wall begins and ends are choices shaped by money, racism, and elite privilege.
Trump must be the second.
