The 2004 & 2005 Atlantic hurricane seasons demonstrated the vulnerability of the U.S. mainland to landfalling tropical cyclones. Economic losses to landfalling hurricanes on the U.S. mainland have roughly doubled each decade from 1900 to 2005. In addition, there were dangerous typhoons in the western Pacific & tropical cyclones in the Indian Ocean, showing that the tropical cyclone threat to populations & the environment, economic well-being, military operations, & U.S. interests abroad is still with us & global in extent. This plan identifies areas within the field of hurricane related sciences that need research & focuses on transferring this research into operations. Illustrations.

NASA's activities span a broad range of complex and technical endeavors, from investigating the composition, evaluation, and resources of Mars; to working with international partners to complete and operate the Internat. Space Station; to providing satellite and aircraft observations of Earth for scientific and weather forecasting; to developing new technologies designed to improve air flight safety. This report reviewed whether NASA's programs and associated activities with a FY 2009 funding level over $50 million -- are duplicative with other activities of the fed. gov¿t. The report identified 33 of 38 NASA programs that meet the mandate's $50 million threshold. These programs represent about 81% of NASA's FY 2009 budget and support 226 projects.

The report reviews a draft strategic plan from the U.S. Climate Change Science Program, a program formed in 2002 to coordinate and direct U.S. efforts in climate change and global change research. The U.S. Climate Change Science Program incorporates the decade-old Global Change Research Program and adds a new component -the Climate Change Research Initiative-whose primary goal is to "measurably improve the integration of scientific knowledge, including measures of uncertainty, into effective decision support systems and resources."
