UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
GOLD MEDAL AWARD
Radar Meteorology and Oceanography Division - ETL
For the theoretical, experimental, and engineering advances that led to the
development of a new technology - an autonomous, ground-based, remote-sensing
system to unambiguously detect dangerous in-flight icing conditions in clouds.
The system will be deployed near large airports where icing hazards are frequent;
providing pilots and air traffic controllers with accurate, real-time warnings
of icing conditions. This technology will save lives and millions of dollars
in property damage.

NOAA Research EMPLOYEE OF THE YEAR
Thomas E. Ayers - for playing a critical role in constructing,
testing, improving, and deploying five millimeter cloud radars used at
several international sites. Because of the importance of this radar as
a new atmospheric sensor, it has been commercialized through a
Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) between ETL
and Radian.
Merri Richeson - for her ability to be a stabilizing influence
during a time of turmoil and change for the people of the Laboratory.
Scott Sandberg - for his dedication to the job of insturment
deployment and his pursuit of getting the job done right many times
under extreme conditions and short deadlines.
