Future Direction Continue current Services - DOE - specialized HYSPLIT assessments
Continue to take lessons learned, data, needs and feed them back into ARL and NOAA R&D
Look to new areas of research opportunities: - NOAA/DOE Renewable Energy activities - Fine scale wind analyses and predictions - improve mesoscale models for the desert SW
