Earth- Human-Earth Interactions 17 5 2. Earth’s Interior, Crust & Surface Interactions 4. Earth System Dynamics, Reservoirs & Fluxes 3. Climate Change – Records of the Past, Lessons for the Future

  7. Science Plan Writing Committee Members • Liaisons: SASEC Chair Maureen Raymo and IODP-MI VP Hans Christian Larsen • Observers: Susan Humphris and Yoshi Tatsumi

  8. New Science Plan Considerations from IWG+ to the SPWC • 50-75 pages, including implementation plan • Aimed at broad scientific community to excite many • Mix of exciting basic science and societally relevant science • Should fit with strategic and national priorities of members • Assume 8-12 months JR; 5 months Chikyu, 1 MSP per year • Identify specific high priority riser projects for Chikyu • Include borehole experiments • Highlight linkages to other large programs • Incorporate education and outreach throughout the Plan

  9. DRAFT!! DRAFT!! Grand Challenges for the New Drilling Program (from the February meeting of the SPWC) • Climate Change: Records from the Past, Lessons for the Future • Deep Life: Exploration of the Marine Intra-terrestrials • Renewing the Lithosphere: Consequences for our Planet • Earth in Motion on Human Timescales: Plate Boundaries, Fluid Flow and Active Experimentation DRAFT!! DRAFT!!

  10. Proposed Versions of the new Science Plan • 50-75 page version for science community (for review by NSB) • 5-10 page version for other science communities, Congressional Staffers, etc. • 1-3 page flyer for general distribution (educators, etc.) Ellen Kappel (Geo-prose) -- will assist in production of Science Plan

  11. Proposed Activities to Foster Community Support Step 1: Develop a 3-person support team to assist in this effort • Peter deMenocal (LDEO) • Katrina Edwards (USC)/ Andy Fisher (UCSC) • Demian Saffer (PSU)

  12. Proposed Activities to Foster Community Support Materials Production • Develop 1-pagers on major accomplishments for each theme/discipline • Develop flyer presenting overall accomplishments of scientific ocean drilling • Develop presentation content on Science Plan for new drilling program Presentations • Universities (USAC DLS, USAC members, recent US cruise participants) • Professional societies of other fields, including Education (Team members) Workshops • Workshop for post-docs and early career scientists • Workshops associated with major conferences

  13. Proposed Activities to Foster Community Support Outreach • Visits to NSF for briefings • Visits to Congressional staff for briefings • Encourage scientists to talk to Presidents, Deans, etc. Community Updates • Section on renewal in re-launched IODP Newsletter • IODP topics in COL weekly e-newsletter • Articles in EOS and other journals • Website and/or blog

  14. A NEW DESCRIPTIVE NAME! Effort being led by Sarah Saunders, COL
