Facilities
North Carolina A&T
NC A&T Research Farm Weather Station
20 Hz ND: YAG Laser (Continuum Surlite II) with a double and triple output pumping two Continuum ND 6000 dye lasers, a UVX: frequency doubling and tracking system (NC A&T)
Continuum Leopard pico second laser with second, third and fourth harmonic generating crystals (NC A&T)
Reflectron Time of Flight mass Spectrometer with pulsed source and effusive source (NC A&T)
Advanced TimeMaster (TM-3) fluorescence lifetime system (pico- to micro-seconds range), Nitrogen/dye laser excitation source, Computer controlled, "QuadraScopic" monochromator (NC A&T)
Ford Scientific Visualization Laboratory (NC A&T)
Provides researchers access to the state of art visualization workstation systems involving SGI workstations, high end Dell Linux graphical workstations, Dell Windows based graphical workstations, IBM workstation, personal computers with hardware, disk capacity, graphical processors and displays, and software for graphical analysis of simulation data, production of short transient movie clips, and 3D stereo rendering. The laboratory also has a SGI Tezro system with a dual head display. A main highlight of this laboratory is a 3D immersive, fixed, flat large screen rear projection visualization system with six projectors.
CUNY Facilities
Optical Remote Sensing Laboratory (CUNY)
Instruments Include Multiwavelength elastic and Raman LADARs, Sunphotometer,
Air Samplers, and Rotating Shadow Band Radiometer
Mobile Environmental Measuring Lab (CUNY)
Instruments Include Yag Laser and Multiwavelength LIDAR
Weather Station (CUNY)
University of Minnesota
Minnesota Supercomputer Institute (MSI) (UM)
This includes a 360 processor IBM SP, a 256 processor SGI Altix Supercomputer, and a 156 processor Linux cluster.
North Carolina State University
High Performance and Grid Computing (NCSU)
The new National LambdaRail Infrastructure, a new high-speed fiber-optic link, will allow faculty & students working on this project to access Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the North Carolina Supercomputing Center, and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) at 10 Gbps, 10,000 times faster than local networks, allowing trainees to run the most sophisticated climate models in real time from a laptop computer connected to NC State’s network. In addition, the project will participate in the High Performance Computing Partners Program which will allow the student local access to supercomputing capabilities.
