NASA Notes:
1) NASA has revised the set of programs and projects it counts as supporting CCSP goals. Beginning in FY 2006, the funding levels
presented do not include the Ground Network and Research Range assets or Congressional interest items but do include activities
not previously counted such as the NPOESS Preparatory Project, portions (33%) of the Landsat Data Continuity Mission (LDCM),
and the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE), as well as portions of the High-End Computing and Scientific
Computing projects.
2) NASA has also revised the set of projects it counts as supporting CCRI. The funding levels presented include activities that were
previously not counted, including portions of the High-End Computing and Scientific Computing projects. The funding decrease
from 2007 to 2008 is primarily due to the planned ramp-down of resources for the Glory mission, a major contributor to NASA
CCRI funding, which is completing development in preparation for a December 2008 launch.
3) 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.
Mapping of Budget Request to Appropriations Legislation. In the Appropriations Committee reports, National Aeronautics and Space Administration CCSP activities are funded under NASA Earth science and technology programs within Title III–Independent Agencies, as part of the Science, Aeronautics, and Technology account. |
