The Colorado Climate Center was established by the
state in 1974, through the Colorado
State University Agricultural Experiment Station, to provide information
and expertise on Colorado's complex climate. Through its threefold program of
Climate Monitoring (data acquisition, analysis, and archiving), Climate Research
and Climate Services, the Center is responding to many climate related questions
and problems affecting the state today.
The Colorado Climate Center is located at Colorado
State University within the Department
of Atmospheric Science, in the College
of Engineering. Dr. Thomas B. McKee is State Climatologist Emeritus (served
the state from 1974-1999) and is an Emeritus Professor in the Atmospheric Science
Department. Dr. Roger A. Pielke,

organization as Past President during 2003-2004. Dr. Pielke Sr. retired as State
Climatologist June 30, 2006 to continue his work with his son, Roger Pielke,
Jr. at CIRES in Boulder.
