Overview Crafting Climate Services Crafting Climate Services Demand Demand Supply Supply Reconciliation Reconciliation Climate Services Clearinghouse Climate Services Clearinghouse Metadata Metadata Plan Plan Place Place

Definition Climate service - “The timely production and delivery of useful climate data, information, and knowledge to decision makers.” (NRC, 2001). ~~~~~ A Network of activities which maintains well-structured paths from observations, modeling, and research to usable information. (Pulwarty, 2004).

Creating an Effective Network Success requires connection Success requires connection Many levels of the production and delivery of information (Supply) Many levels of the production and delivery of information (Supply) Many levels of usefulness to decision makers (Demand) Many levels of usefulness to decision makers (Demand)

Missed Opportunity Matrix Answer these two questions simultaneously Answer these two questions simultaneously Where we find missed opportunities, we can take steps to reconcile supply and demand Where we find missed opportunities, we can take steps to reconcile supply and demand Does the decision maker need climate information? Does climate services research focus on the information needs of the decision maker?

Crafting climate services (CS): Where are we? 1. Pre- planning. Concepts and organization 2. Strategic Analysis. Needs and baseline conditions 3. Planning and Design. Management options and work plans 4. Implementation. Priority actions 5. Operation & Maintenance. Performance monitoring and adaptation to changes Strong analysis and planning is evident in CS but…. Weak implementation and monitoring experience to date (Pulwarty, 2004) The place for Reconciliation

Demand “Activities sensitive to weather and climate account for 42% of the USGDP.” (Dutton, 2002). “Activities sensitive to weather and climate account for 42% of the USGDP.” (Dutton, 2002). Considerable effort towards characterizing demand Considerable effort towards characterizing demand ie NRC report Making Climate Forecasts Matter (1999) ie NRC report Making Climate Forecasts Matter (1999)

Supply NOAA NOAA NWS NWS CPC CPC CSD CSD Hydrologic Services Hydrologic Services NCDC NCDC RCCs RCCs RISAs RISAs State Climate Offices State Climate Offices Etc. Etc. Academia Academia Other Federal Agencies USDA USFS NASA DOE EPA DOI USGS Private Sector CCMs Etc.

Characterization of Supply Some regional clearinghouses especially with NOAA products Some regional clearinghouses especially with NOAA products No nation-wide, ‘forest-level perspective’ No nation-wide, ‘forest-level perspective’ Nothing that pulls together all products across sectors to give full perspective on supply.

Progress Now, it is a prototype, phase 0 Now, it is a prototype, phase 0 Phase 1 over the next year will fill in the supply on the website Phase 1 over the next year will fill in the supply on the website Phase 2 will focus on demand Phase 2 will focus on demand Phase 3 will work on reconciliation. Operationalize. Phase 3 will work on reconciliation. Operationalize.
