Earth System Research Laboratories
The Earth System Research Laboratories (ESRL) is an alliance of four NOAA scientific labs, all located in the David Skaggs Research Center on the Department of Commerce campus in Boulder, Colorado. Organized under NOAA's Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research, ESRL studies weather, climate, air quality, water resources, and other Earth system components. ESRL collaborates with researchers and scholars from nearby University of Colorado and Colorado State University, and partners with the National Center for Atmospheric Research.
