Feedback and Action Items Paula Bontempi and Fred Lipschultz NASA Headquarters Ocean Color Research Team Meeting 6 May 2009
U.S. Carbon Cycle Science Plan • Evolution of Sarmiento and Wofsy (1999) • The next U.S. carbon cycle science plan • Identify challenges and priorities for the next decade (~2010-2020) • Involve broader research community in formulation and implementation • Recommendations go to agency managers who set carbon cycle science priorities for the next decade, and sponsor most of the carbon research in the U.S. • Summer 2008 – Charter approved by CCIWG, co-leads identified and enlisted: Anna Michelak (University of Michigan), Chris Sabine (NOAA-PMEL), Rob Jackson (Duke University), Greg Marland (Oak Ridge National Laboratory) • Comments/Updates: http://www.carboncyclescience.gov/carbonplanning.php

NASA OB&B Research • ROSES 2009 -http://nspires.nasaprs.com/- Release Date 13 February 2009, Amended 3 April 2009 • Ocean Biology and Biogeochemistry and Cryospheric Sciences(~$3.0 M/yr) up to 4 yrs • Beaufort and Chukchi Seas: • Field work • Data Synthesis, Assimilation, and Modeling • IDS Subelement 3: Hydrologic, Biological, Biogeochemical, and Geological Impacts of Melting Ice (Productivity in Beaufort and Chukchi Seas portion) • Interdisciplinary Science(five topics) up to 3 yrs • Subelement 2: Impacts of Varying or Changing Climate, Local Weather, and Land Use on Watersheds and their Connected Coastal Environments
Challenges for NASA • Role of ocean biology and chemistry (color) in climate and Earth system science • Continuity of EOS observations / missions • Decadal Survey Science Working Group membership • Future desires for cap and trade • Tie in with NSF, NOAA Climate Service • International linkages: US GEO, IPCC (via OCB?)
