Check out this Social Science Research-to-Applications (R2X) Seminar by Gina and Castle: After hearing community feedback at the WPO SBS Research to Operations (R2O) workshop, the WPO Social Science Program has been hard at work addressing your needs.
We are looking for reviewers for WPO’s FY23 Funding Opportunity: Pending the availability of FY23 funding, the WPO Social Science Program is planning for a funding opportunity and needs reviewers.
The lack of continued support for projects that are near completion creates a backlog of usable resources that cannot be fully incorporated into operations. The NWS Office of Science and Technology indicated that this backlog impedes the growth and progress of NWS operations which reduces the benefit of forecast improvements for the public. WPO chose to work towards resolving this issue by holding a NOAA internal funding competition.
