In an announcement on Feb. 8, 2010, the Department of Commerce and NOAA proposed establishing a NOAA Climate Service.
Individuals and decision-makers across widely diverse sectors - from agriculture to energy to transportation - are increasingly asking NOAA for information about climate change in order to make the best choices for their families, communities and businesses. To meet the rising tide of these requests, this newly proposed line office would be dedicated to bringing together the agency's strong climate science and service delivery capabilities.
About the NOAA Climate Service
The NOAA Climate Service will encompass a core set of longstanding NOAA capabilities with proven success. The climate research, observations, modeling, predictions and assessments generated by NOAA's top scientists - including Nobel Peace Prize award-winners - will continue to provide the scientific foundation for extensive on-the-ground climate services that respond to several requests each day for data and other critical information.
This web site offers background materials relating to NOAA's plans as well as background materials that will help explain the internal and external input that led to the Climate Service's creation. Please check back frequently for updates. For more info see the site below.
