U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey A USGS Water Science Strategy

Evolving from an organization that was created to inventory the Nation’s public lands and natural resources, the mission of the 21 st century USGS is most simply expressed in its maxim “Science for a Changing World.” Facing Tomorrow’s Challenges — U.S. Geological Survey Science in the Decade 2007–2017 Circular 1309

Aligned leadership and science staff with the 7 science directions Climate and Land Use Change; Ecosystems; Natural Hazards; Water; Core Science Systems; Energy and Minerals; Environmental Heath Open and transparent planning process that includes scientists and managers, stakeholders Strategic Science Planning Teams appointed for each of the 7 science directions Draft science plan will be made available for public comment Science Strategy and Realignment

Charged with developing a science strategy for USGS water activities and supporting programs Consists of senior scientists and managers from all USGS major science disciplines Builds on USGS core strengths that support interdisciplinary science Co-Chairs: Eric Evenson (609) Randall Orndorff (703) Water Science Strategic Planning Team (SSPT)

Integration of science activities will be a major theme. Ecosystems Environmental Health Water Global Change Natural Hazards Energy and Minerals Core Science

Integration of science activities will be a major theme. Here are some examples of cross-cutting issues. Ecosystems Environmental Health Water Global Change Natural Hazards Energy and Minerals Water quality and flow needs for ecosystems Changes in precipitation, ET, flow, temperature, timing characteristics, etc. Water needs for energy development and energy production; energy needs for producing water Water quality and flow impacts to environ. Health and human health Floods, debris flows, high flow hydrologic techniques etc. Data Integration; decision- support systems; data management; product delivery Core Science

1.Broadly, what areas of science will be needed to address Water Availability issues of the future? 2.What specific areas of Water-related research should USGS advance in the next 5-10 years? 3.What types of Water-related products should USGS aim to produce in the next 5-10 years? 4.What does Water need from other Missions? And...What does Water have to offer to other Missions? Key Questions
