Affiliate scientists are senior-level scientists from the university and research community who desire to carry out long-term, highly interactive, collaborative work with our scientists on scientific problems of mutual interest.
These appointments are three-year terms and include annual visits as well as financial or administrative support. Currently 48 colleagues from 12 countries, 15 states, and 20 U.S. universities hold affiliate scientist appointments at NCAR.

Criteria
It is NCAR's intent that an individual NCAR scientist and a scientist at another institution initially explore their common scientific interests. When discussions reach an appropriate state of development, the scientist at the participating institution may seek approval of an Affiliate Scientist appointment. Nominating letters should be forwarded by the NCAR scientist's laboratory director to the NCAR director.
Please review the nomination procedures for new nominations. Affiliate Scientist nominations are reviewed once a year, at the February Board of Trustees meeting.
