OpenSky is the open access institutional repository of scholarly works published by scientists, researchers, and other staff supporting NCAR, UCAR, and UCP. It provides free and open access to our scientific scholarship for the benefit of the Earth system science research and education communities, contributing to UCAR’s mission of science in service to society. OpenSky is also home to digitized and born-digital material from the NCAR Archives, which preserves and provides access to NCAR/UCAR history.
