Description:NOAA was created in 1970 to undertake a coordinated approach to our Nation’s “immediate and compelling needs for better protection of life and property from natural hazards and for a better understanding of the total environment...(to) more effectively...monitor and predict its actions and, ultimately,...exercise some degree of control over them.” (R.
