Technology Development Facility
The Technology Development Facility (TDF) represents the latest in technological advances across a wide range of fields. It relies heavily on strategic collaborations and partnerships with other groups, including commercial, university, and national laboratories.
Vision of the Technology Development Facility
Current Projects under development within TDF and Group Members
Stephen Shertz
- Project(s): Water Vapor Reference Sounding System
Petter Weibring
- Project(s): CAMS, High Efficiency DFG
Bruce Morley
- Project(s): Lidar Wind Profiler
Lars Rippe, ASP Postdoc
- Project(s): CO2 Isotropic Ratio
The Analytical Photonics & Optoelectronics Laboratory (APOL)
group develops and employs new advanced optical spectroscopic
technologies, instruments, and advanced algorithms for the next
generation of ground-based and airborne measurements of various
atmospheric trace gases. Working with atmospheric modelers, the APOL
group also utilizes the high quality data thus obtained to further
advance our understanding of atmospheric processes and chemical
transformations.

Kelly Craig
Kelly performs web administration, monitors and configures the EOL web infrastructure. He supports other EOL staff in creating web sites, multimedia assets, new content types, future web interfaces, maintains legacy web systems, and implements new ways to interface with the EOL web presence.
Britt Stephens
Britt Stephens became fascinated with Earth sciences during high school field trips in northeastern Oregon, where he grew up. When he started college at Harvard University, he was determined to branch out into new subjects.
Vanda Grubisic
EOL Affiliate Scientist Vanda Grubišic is a female pioneer. She the first woman Full Professor of the Department of Meteorology and Geophysics at the University of Vienna: "That is a great honour and a great responsibility", she says.
Henry Boynton
Henry Boynton can tell you what the atmosphere looks like at 51,000 feet above Earth's surface, a good 15,000 feet higher than most commercial airplanes venture. "The biggest thing you notice is that the sky is a lot bluer," he observes.
Marcel Verstraete
When Marcel Verstraete came to work at NCAR in May 1962, construction of the Mesa Lab was still years in the future. Scientists used slide rules instead of computers. And because there were no satellites to carry instruments, a major goal...
