- Environmental Research Laboratories (ERL) - Research, technology development, and services to improve understanding of the Earth and its oceans and inland waters, the lower and upper atmosphere, and the space environment.
- Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) - Miami, Florida. Conducts research in oceanography, tropical meteorology, atmospheric and oceanic chemistry, and acoustics. Provides information on forecasting of and research on hurricanes and other severe storms.
- Great Lakes Environmental Research Lab (GLERL) - Conducts integrated, interdisciplinary environmental research in support of resource management and environmental services in coastal and estuarine waters, with a special emphasis on the Great Lakes.
- National Undersea Research Program (NURP) - NURP supports undersea science and technology. Researchers from around the world use scuba, underwater observatories, and submersibles to study marine environmental problems.
- Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) - The goal of GFDL's research is to understand and predict the earth's climate and weather, including the impact of human activities. GFDL conducts leading-edge research on many topics of great practical value, including weather and hurricane forecasts, El Niņo prediction, stratospheric ozone depletion, and global warming.
- Environmental Technology Laboratory (ETL) - Supports NOAA's environmental monitoring and stewardship charter by performing fundamental oceanic and atmospheric research and developing new remote-sensing systems and techniques.
- Air Resources Laboratory (ARL) - Researching the processes that affect the quality of the atmosphere, ARL provides scientific advice to elements of NOAA and other Government agencies on environmental problems and emergency response.
- Atmospheric Turbulence and Diffusion Division - NOAA laboratory research activities are divided into three themes: Air Quality, Emergency Preparedness, and Climate Variability. Located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
- Aeronomy Laboratory (AL) - Conducting research on the chemical and dynamic processes of the Earth's atmosphere, the Aeronomy Laboratory seeks to provide a sound scientific basis for decisions made in industry and government related to ozone layer protection, air quality improvement, and climate change.
- National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL) - Conducts research to improve accurate and timely forecasts and warnings of hazardous weather events such as blizzards, ice storms, flash floods, tornadoes, and lightning.
