NOAA, others
• US Global Change Research Program– 2009 (and 2013) National
Assessments
• National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA) Study– Endorsed NOAA’s climate

5 CS Initial Priorities
(3) SUSTAINABILITY OF MARINE ECOSYSTEMS: Improve understanding of, and information about, the impacts of climate on ocean properties critical to managing large marine ecosystems
Example User Groups: NMFS, states, NOS, FWS,USBR, fisheries management councils
(1) CLIMATE IMPACTS ON WATER RESOURCES: Provide coordinated and authorization information to guide water resources managers
Example User Groups: water resource managers, civil engineers, farmers, emergency management officials, USBR, USDA, USACE
(2) COASTS AND CLIMATE RESILIENCE: Understand physical processes that drive sea-level rise and coastal inundation, and provide the best available information to decision-makers
Example User Groups: coastal and emergency managers, NOS, FEMA, USACE, USGS, HUD, MSP

5 CS Initial Priorities-cont.
(4) EXTREMES IN A CHANGING CLIMATE: Develop and deliver information to anticipate, prepare for, and adapt to weather and climate extremes
Example User Groups: emergency managers, state and local officials, energy industry, resource managers, city planners, insurance industry
Most important 3 factors, scale, scale, scale,,,adaptation to climate variability and change is local(5) INFORMING CLIMATE POLICY OPTIONS: Provide sound science to information climate-related policies, plans, and strategies including both mitigation and adaptation
Example User Groups: policy makers, energy industry, EPA, DOE, state and local communities, State Dept.
