The judge ruled that the NSF must stop any removal of NCAR or UCAR, which manages NCAR on behalf of the NSF, from its rights, resources or responsibilities related to the supercomputer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are pleased that Judge Jackson recognized how damaging the proposed transfer of the NWSC to another operator would be for the nation\u2019s scientific community,\u201d UCAR Interim President Eric Barron said in a statement. \u201cUCAR\u2019s top priority is to advance Earth system science in service to society. Our work supports national security, public safety, and economic prosperity, and any steps made toward divesting NCAR of its high-performance computing facilities would risk disrupting the country\u2019s extraordinary advances in weather and space weather modeling and forecasting, as well as related programs spanning agriculture, water resources, wildfire risk, military support, power grid interruption, and aviation safety. Today\u2019s decision ensures that the NWSC will be able to continue its vital work on behalf of the United States and its stakeholders without interruption.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the motion and during the hearing, UCAR argued that it would suffer irreparable harm if the NSF were allowed to proceed with its decision to transfer stewardship of the supercomputing center, including the departures of employees with specialized expertise, disruption of research projects, financial consequences and undermining UCAR\u2019s mission.<\/p>\n<p>The injunction ensures operations continue as before at the supercomputing center as the lawsuit brought by UCAR on March 16 against four federal agencies continues. UCAR filed the lawsuit to stop the Trump administration\u2019s planned dismantling of Boulder\u2019s NCAR, alleging that the planned reorganization of the agency is retaliatory and violates federal law.<\/p>\n<p>The NCAR-Wyoming Supercomputing Center, currently operated by NCAR in Cheyenne, Wyoming, supports and advances Earth system sciences by providing computing environments, data services and research in computational science, according to its website. It\u2019s used across the globe for its weather forecasts and data. Each year, it provides its resources to more than 1,500 users at more than 500 universities and research institutions.<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe to our new newsletter to get Boulder\u2019s latest news sent straight to your inbox.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A judge has temporarily stopped the National Science Foundation from removing Boulder&#8217;s National Center for Atmospheric Research from its leadership of the NCAR-Wyoming Supercomputing Center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1085,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1086","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-headlines"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
