In 1967 a new institute was born at the University of Colorado, a vision of
government and academic researchers and administrators who created an environment
within which NOAA and University scientists from diverse fields could conduct
interdisciplinary research. Thirty-five years later, CIRES is the largest of
the NOAA Joint Institutes program, now with 13 institutes throughout the country.
From a nascent organization of a handful of scientists, we have grown to comprise
over 500 individuals, from undergraduates to professors emeritus, conducting
pacesetting research in a broad range of environmental topics. In 2002, we
celebrated our 35th year and published CIRES,1967-2002. Cooperative Institute
for Research in Environmental Sciences. Pioneering a Successful Partnership.
