'''Cooperative Institute for Mesoscale Meteorological Studies (CIMMS)''' is a research organization formed through a partnership between the University of Oklahoma (OU) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). CIMMS focuses on mesoscale meteorology, which includes the study of weather systems at scales smaller than synoptic but larger than microscale, such as thunderstorms, squall lines, and mesoscale convective systems. {{Official URL (simple)|url=https://cimms.ou.edu}} == Mission == CIMMS's mission is to advance the science of mesoscale meteorology by conducting research that leads to better weather forecasting, more accurate radar analysis, and an improved understanding of regional climate impacts. It aims to transfer this knowledge into operational use to enhance safety and economic benefits for society. == Parent organization == CIMMS is part of the [[University of Oklahoma]] and collaborates extensively with the [[National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration|NOAA's National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL)]], among other NOAA entities. == Legislation == CIMMS was established through a cooperative agreement with NOAA, rather than through specific legislation. ==Partners== * [[University of Oklahoma]] * [[National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration]] == Number of employees == The number of employees at CIMMS is not specified in the search results. == Organization structure == CIMMS's structure supports its focus on mesoscale meteorology: * '''Research Groups''' centered around topics like radar meteorology, severe storms, and atmospheric dynamics. * '''Operational Transition Teams''' to move research into practical applications. * '''Education and Outreach''' to train students and share knowledge with the community. == List of programs == * Mesoscale Dynamics and Predictability Research * Radar Meteorology and Remote Sensing * Severe Storms and Tornado Research * Climate Monitoring and Analysis * Educational Workshops and Training Programs == Last total enacted budget == The specific budget for CIMMS isn't detailed in the search results. == Leader == The leadership for CIMMS is not specified in the search results. == Services provided == CIMMS conducts research to understand and predict mesoscale weather events, develops technologies for weather radar, advances numerical weather prediction models, and provides educational resources. They work to integrate their research findings into NOAA's operational systems for improved weather services. == Regulations overseen == CIMMS does not oversee regulations but supports NOAA's operational meteorology through research. == Headquarters address == National Weather Center, 120 David L. Boren Blvd., Suite 2100, Norman, OK 73072, USA == Website == https://cimms.ou.edu == Wikipedia article == wikipedia:Cooperative Institute for Mesoscale Meteorological Studies <references /> [[Category:University of Oklahoma]] [[Category:Partnerships]]
