The 1991 Incentive Awards, Part II

Last week Staff Notes began a two-partseries recognizing winners of NCARincentive awards for 1991. The awards goto staff for outstanding single-instanceservices that go beyond prescribed dutiesin matters of unusual importance toNCAR's mission. This installment coversthe awards given in connection with theConvection and Electrification/Precipita-tion Experiment (CaPE), held lastsummer. *BH

ured new computer systems andbalanced many last-minute scientificand operational needs, developingnew features of Zeb even after thedata management system was beingused routinely in CaPE.

Cathy Kessinger (RAP), forplanning, coordinating, and executingCaPOW. Her work included numer-ous delicate activities involving theU.S. Air Force and National WeatherService, taking place in a high-securityarea under very stressful and de-manding conditions over a seven-week period. Cathy's dedication ledto CaPOW being highly visible andsuccessful.

Jon Lutz (ATD), for bringing theCP-2 radar back into operation forCaPE after it had been mothballed fortwo years and its staff dispersed.With a highly motivated and produc-tive team assembled by Jon, the radaroperated for 98.5% percent of therequested time. The data are leadingto major advances in the areas ofprecipitation growth, cloud entrain-ment, and the relation of cloudglaciation to the onset of lightning.

Cindy Mueller (RAP), for herwork to ensure the quality of radardata from CaPE and her contribution

to Zeb development and deploymentin CaPE. In addition to a demandingset of duties as nowcaster, radar scanoptimizer, and radar scientist, Cindyperformed numerous checks andintercomparisons to evaluate radardata quality. Preceding CaPE, Cindyheaded up the coordination of CaPEneeds with Zeb development, andduring CaPE she trained countlessfield scientists in the use of Zeb.

Carmen Paneitz (ATD), for herefforts in supporting three fieldprojects in mid-1991: CaPE, the 1991Winter Icing and Storms Project, andthe Cooperative Oklahoma ProfilerStudies. Going beyond her usualduties, Carmen directed severalphases of the removal and installationof portable automated mesonetstations for the three projects. Afternearly six weeks in the field, Carmenvolunteered to return to Florida torepair wind-sensor problems thatappeared at the beginning of CaPE.

Peggy Taylor (ATD), for out-standing service in administrativesupport for CaPE. Peggy was overallATD coordinator for CaPE, setting upand managing the field project office;providing information to NCAR staff,investigators, and visitors; andmaking numerous arrangements forhousing, automobiles, phone service,and the like. Her work greatlyincreased the productivity andreduced the workload of CaPEinvestigators.

Chuck Wade (RAP/MMM;nominated by RAP) for preparing theCaPE sounding program. Throughnegotiations and numerous proposals,Chuck arranged for support fromseveral agencies for CaPE soundingsand was solely responsible for locat-ing 55 sites for portable automatedmesonet stations and cross-chainLoran atmospheric sounding systems.

Announcements

In the Galleries: Sharon Hults

Sharon Hults will show herwatercolors in the second-floor galleryof the Mesa Lab from 2 through28 May. Her show of landscapes andflowers has been described as reflect-ing the "beauty of the wild." Theshow will present her current work onan heirloom series based on piecesfrom her own family's collections.

Hults has made extensive tripsfrom Colorado to Alaska to gathermaterial for her work, which includessculpture. Earlier pieces reflect herappreciation of Native Americanculture as well as wildlife.

Teaching watercolor techniqueshas heightened the clarity of Hults'own work through interactions withher students. She finds that her verbalexplanations of technique or processhelp her to understand her interestsmore fully and express them throughwatercolor.

The artist's works can be found invarious collections including AdolphCoors, Anheuser-Busch, BoulderCommunity Hospital, Gates RubberCompany, and United Bank ofBoulder.

Did You Get Your Survey Results?

In early January, an opinionsurvey of all UCAR/NCAR/INOemployees was conducted by theconsultants Somerville & Company inconjunction with the UCAR Commit-tee on Institutional Equity. The

results of that survey, with a memofrom Rick Anthes and Bob Serafin,were sent to all staff last week. If youdid not receive a copy, please contactKristen Womer in Human Resources,ext. 8711.

Ticksl Yipeslll

The warm 1991-92 winter hasencouraged ticks to emerge early thisspring. The first confirmed case ofColorado tick fever has already beenreported to the state health depart-ment and ticks have been found onthe NCAR mesa. Public healthofficials expect about 100 cases of tickfever this year. Don't be one of thestatistics! Wear a repellent containingDEET on all exposed skin and con-duct a regular tick check whenwalking in high grass or woods.
