  2. Briefing Objective and Background • Objective: Provide info to UWG on currently developing collaborations relevant to CDIAC • Background • CDIAC data and expertise are critical to these efforts • CDIAC will supply data to the projects, as appropriate • CDIAC core funding is not being used forthese projects • We are seeking funding from others as this work develops • Anticipated benefits • Grow CDIAC capabilities and expertise, in ways consistent with DOE mission • Contribute to important CDIAC-relevant science

  3. Greenhouse Gas Information System • Goal: Data and analysis to support GHG treaty compliance estimates • For US Government decision makers • Likelihood that another country has or has not lived up to treaty obligations • Assimilation of large quantities of data on GHG • Capable of transparent disclosure • Current status • Scoping study underway • Collaboration of multiple DOE labs + JPL Change from Insert tab | Header & Footer

  4. NASA Carbon Monitoring System • Current Goal: Assess capabilities and needs for an operational Carbon Monitoring System to support open science and policy development, including USGCRP and IPCC assessments • Congressional directive to NASA • Fossil fuel emissions and Ameriflux are key data sources • Integrate ground- and space-based observations • Natural and human-cause sources and sinks • Strong connections with CDIAC collaborators • Current status • Draft scoping document in development • Pilot projects underway (at NASA centers) Change from Insert tab | Header & Footer
