United States Climate Change Science Program
The U.S. Global Change Research Act of 1990 initiated the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) that continues today as a major sponsor of global change research. In June 2001 President George W. Bush directed the USGCRP agencies to develop a focused Climate Change Research Initiative (CCRI) with the goal of accelerating the USGCRP research activities in the next 2 to 5 years to assist in the development of public policy and natural resource management tools related to climate change issues. The U.S. Climate Change Science Program (CCSP), incorporating the USGCRP and the CCRI, will hold a comprehensive workshop to receive participants' individual comments on a discussion draft version of its Strategic Plan for climate change and global change studies. When finalized, the draft strategic Plan reviewed during and after the Workshop will provide the principal guidance for the U.S. global change and climate change research programs during the next several years, subject to revisions as appropriate to respond to newly developed information and decision support tools.
