Overview

The report reviews a draft strategic plan from the U.S. Climate Change Science Program, a program formed in 2002 to coordinate and direct U.S. efforts in climate change and global change research.

The U.S. Climate Change Science Program incorporates the decade-old Global Change Research Program and adds a new component —the Climate Change Research Initiative— whose primary goal is to "measurably improve the integration of scientific knowledge, including measures of uncertainty, into effective decision support systems and resources."
