1 Prior to FY 2007, NASA linked the Applied Sciences and the Education and Outreach programs to USGCRP Focus Areas, but not to CCSP research elements;
the current table identifies these programs as contributing to the CCSP Human Contributions and Responses element for the three fiscal years addressed.
2 Entries given in FY 2006 and FY 2007 for EPA are "enacted" budgetary amounts.
Note: Any minor discrepancies within this table and between this table and others are due to rounding.
