A Satellite Meteorology Course for University Faculty (with Emphasis on the Application of GOES Data)

大气研究大学公司将通过一个项目加强卫星气象学本科生教育，该项目的中心是为大学教员举办为期两周的综合性教员课程，拟于1998年6月1日至12日在科罗拉多博尔德的业务气象学、教育和培训合作方案教室设施举办。这将有助于满足升级卫星气象学教育的需要，尽管气象卫星能力最近取得了进展，但目前卫星气象学教育在本科课程中受到的待遇非常有限。由于该方案，参加者将能够利用新技术，通过增进对遥感原理和应用于天气预报和研究的了解，增进他们对卫星气象学的了解。参与者将参与一个后续项目，开发在线教学材料，这些材料将与教师课程材料一起沿着通过万维网广泛提供。

The University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) will enhance undergraduate education in satellite meteorology by means of a project centered on a comprehensive, two-week faculty course for university faculty, to be held 1-12 June 1998 at the Cooperative Program for Operational Meteorology, Education and Training (COMET~) classroom facilities in Boulder, Colorado. This will help fulfill the need to upgrade satellite meteorology education, which at present receives very limited treatment in undergraduate programs, despite recent advances in meteorological satellite capabilities. As a result of the program, participants will be able to exploit new technologies to improve their knowledge of satellite meteorology through enhanced understanding of remote sensing principles and applications to weather forecasting and research. Participants will engage in a follow-up project to develop on-line instructional materials which, along with the faculty course materials, will be made widely available via the World-Wide Web.
