Story
Data Science ESIP Publication
I have attended these ESIP meetings before and tried to figure out their purpose and web/wiki content.
The ESIP Winter Meeting 2015 was equally difficult to figure out the purpose and content. The bits and pieces I heard were about data publication and briefing the NITRD.Since the Federal Big Data Working Group Meetup does data science publications for senior government leaders and programs, I decided to better organize the ESIP Winter Meeting 2015 content for a purpose, namely a data publication.
Interestingly, ESIP uses Drupal (a Wiki) to add structure and semantics, but I find it hard to see that ESIP content in Drupal is more understandable and a data publication. The key piece of ESIP Winter Meeting 2015 content is a Google spreadsheet, not Drupal, and should be the interface to all the other content in a structured and semantically searchable form. That is what the Knowledge Base and Spreadsheets I am going to build will do.
So here is the navigation path:
- There are 4 sources of information
- Federation: http://esipfed.org/
- Commons: A knowledge repository created by members of the ESIP community. Content on this site is licensed under Creative Commons and freely available to the public for use, sharing, repurposing and remixing.
- Test Bed: http://testbed.esipfed.org/
- Wiki: http://wiki.esipfed.org/
- The Commons knowledge repository contains 3,356 items that can be in linked data format in an Excel spreadsheet
-
The Winter Meeting 2015 Agenda consists of multiple formats and pages: http://commons.esipfed.org/2015WinterMeeting
-
Drupal annotated schedule:http://commons.esipfed.org/2015WinterMeeting#Agenda
-
-
The Commons also contains the Posters and Demos for 2012-1015
-
The Winter Meeting 2015 Proceedings have not been posted yet
The key results for data publication are:
- The ESIP: Semantic Portal contains the ESIP: Ontology Portal provides a single site where ontologies related to ESIP, its members, and the earth science domain can be found, but the question is: What do these do for ESIP?
- Selected Sessions:
- A Systems Approach to Food Resilience - Joseph Fiksel, Ohio State University
- What does it mean to Publish Data?
- Earth Science Data Analytics 101
- Connecting geodata in and among governmental agencies - Compare plans submitted in response to OSTP requests
- Resilience, Sustainablility and Data --driven Adaptation
- Dynamic Data Citation
The closest ESIP content I found to what I am doing here is the following 2013 poster:
Navigating ESIP on the Web: A unifying online presence for the multifaceted services of the ESIP community
The purpose of this poster is to display the creation of a comprehensive web presence that represents concepts of the philosophy and the integral components of the ESIP community. The design serves to create a cohesive hub unifying the distinct communication and knowledge capture services offered by and for the ESIP federation. The esipfed.org front page incorporates other web elements by link and provides a visual understanding of the network that facilitates navigation, reduces text elements, and adds an element of interactivity. The design is in the process of implementation and this poster displays the elements of that new design for the community.

I found the USDA Food Environmental Atlas data download, cleaned and added an integration tab, imported it in Spotfire, build a Spotfire application that tells a data science story, and found that Harris County, Texas leads the nation in Population with low access to store in 2010 and Household Food Insecurity (percent, 3-year average 2010-2012). There is also a strong correlation between obesity and diabetes at the county level. See Spotfire Dashboard and screen captures below.
Some Conclusions and Recommendations
- Foundation & ESIP: Information in many places and multiple tools.
- Need to integrate and structure.
- Winter Meeting 2015 Theme: Leveraging Earth Science Data and Analytics in Food Systems.
- Where’s the data science and analytics?
- Winter Meeting 2015 Topics: IT&I, Societal Benefit, Plenary, External, & Data Stewardship.
- Mine for data sets for data science publications.
- Data: Citation Guidelines 2012 and Data Publication 2015.
- Add Proceedings to my ESIP Data Science Publication.
I think this Data Science ESIP Publication meets the Coalition for Publishing Data in the Earth and Space Sciences requirements.
The Data Citation Principles cover purpose, function and attributes of citations. These principles recognize the dual necessity of creating citation practices that are both human understandable and machine-actionable.
The principles are grouped so as to facilitate understanding, rather than according to any perceived criteria of importance.
- Importance
- Data should be considered legitimate, citable products of research. Data citations should be accorded the same importance in the scholarly record as citations of other research objects, such as publications.
- DONE
- Data should be considered legitimate, citable products of research. Data citations should be accorded the same importance in the scholarly record as citations of other research objects, such as publications.
- Credit and Attribution
- Data citations should facilitate giving scholarly credit and normative and legal attribution to all contributors to the data, recognizing that a single style or mechanism of attribution may not be applicable to all data.
- DONE
- Data citations should facilitate giving scholarly credit and normative and legal attribution to all contributors to the data, recognizing that a single style or mechanism of attribution may not be applicable to all data.
- Evidence
- In scholarly literature, whenever and wherever a claim relies upon data, the corresponding data should be cited.
- DONE
- In scholarly literature, whenever and wherever a claim relies upon data, the corresponding data should be cited.
- Unique Identification
- A data citation should include a persistent method for identification that is machine actionable, globally unique, and widely used by a community.
- DONE
- A data citation should include a persistent method for identification that is machine actionable, globally unique, and widely used by a community.
- Access
- Data citations should facilitate access to the data themselves and to such associated metadata, documentation, code, and other materials, as are necessary for both humans and machines to make informed use of the referenced data.
- DONE
- Data citations should facilitate access to the data themselves and to such associated metadata, documentation, code, and other materials, as are necessary for both humans and machines to make informed use of the referenced data.
- Persistence
- Unique identifiers, and metadata describing the data, and its disposition, should persist -- even beyond the lifespan of the data they describe.
- DONE
- Unique identifiers, and metadata describing the data, and its disposition, should persist -- even beyond the lifespan of the data they describe.
- Specificity and Verifiability
- Data citations should facilitate identification of, access to, and verification of the specific data that support a claim. Citations or citation metadata should include information about provenance and fixity sufficient to facilitate verfiying that the specific time-slice, version and/or granular portion of data retrieved subsequently is the same as was originally cited.

Citations or citation metadata should include information about provenance and fixity sufficient to facilitate verfiying that the specific time-slice, version and/or granular portion of data retrieved subsequently is the same as was originally cited.
- Interoperability and Flexibility
- Data citation methods should be sufficiently flexible to accommodate the variant practices among communities, but should not differ so much that they compromise interoperability of data citation practices across communities.

Research Notes
ESIP Earth Science Data Analytics
Discuss Use Case Information Needed. Continuing our face to face at ESIP, we decided to build a library of Earth science data analytics use cases, but first needed to ensure the information requested was clear and appropriate. Steve Kempler created a Google Spreadsheet open for review and comments. Besides the folks who, at the face-to-face, signed up to spend a little time to review and provide inputs on the spreadsheet, if others wish to be involved in editing, please send me an e-mail.

USDA CIO and ACDO on Open Data Plan and Roundtable, March 16, 2015
I also meant to mention that I am using the newest Spotfire Cloud with their new Recommendations Analytics (Slides) and am very pleased. It is based on 19 years of Best Practices and built into the software to help one be both a data artist and decision maker with the data set (s) being used.
What if you let the data tell you what analytics are most appropriate so each data set is a use case data publication? The Federal Big Data Working Group Meetup has produced a number of uses cases for past and upcoming meetups like the ESIP for USDA: http://www.meetup.com/Federal-Big-Data-Working-Group/events/220121871/

About the Food Environment Atlas
Source: http://www.ers.usda.gov/data-product...the-atlas.aspx
Objectives of the Atlas:
Food environment factors—such as store/restaurant proximity, food prices, food and nutrition assistance programs, and community characteristics—interact to influence food choices and diet quality. Research has been documenting the complexity of these interactions, but more research is needed to identify causal relationships and effective policy interventions.
The objectives of the Atlas are:
- to assemble statistics on food environment indicators to stimulate research on the determinants of food choices and diet quality, and
- to provide a spatial overview of a community's ability to access healthy food and its success in doing so.
What information is included in the Atlas?
The Atlas assembles statistics on three broad categories of food environment factors:
- Food Choices—Indicators of the community's access to and acquisition of healthy, affordable food, such as: access and proximity to a grocery store; number of foodstores and restaurants; expenditures on fast foods; food and nutrition assistance program participation; food prices; food taxes; and availability of local foods.
- Health and Well-Being—Indicators of the community's success in maintaining healthy diets, such as: food insecurity; diabetes and obesity rates; and physical activity levels.
- Community Characteristics—Indicators of community characteristics that might influence the food environment, such as: demographic composition; income and poverty; population loss; metro-nonmetro status; natural amenities; and recreation and fitness centers.
The Atlas currently includes over 211 indicators of the food environment. The year and geographic level of the indicators vary to better accommodate data from a variety of sources. Some indicators are at the county level while others are at the State or regional level. The most recent county-level data are used whenever possible.
See Data Access and Documentation Downloads for a complete list of indicators, definitions, and data sources. MY NOTE: This link has important information extracted below.
In the downloadable Excel spreadsheets:
- State and county Federal information processing standards (FIPS) codes are provided.
- The variable lookup file links the short field descriptions (indicator names) used in the data file with the longer indicator names used in the Atlas.
- Unless otherwise noted with asterisks on the longer indicator names (in the variable lookup file), indicators are county-level measures. A single asterisk * denotes a State-level indicator, while a double asterisk ** denotes a regional-level indicator.
- "No data" fields are empty or referenced with "-9999".
- Supplemental data are provided in additional tabs (State- and county-level data are provided separately).
What can users do with the Atlas?
- Create maps showing the variation in a single indicator across the United States; for example, variation in the prevalence of obesity or access to grocery stores across U.S. counties;
- View all of the county-level indicators for a selected county;
- Zoom in to specific areas and export or print maps;
- Download the full dataset in Excel format.

Coalition for Publishing Data in the Earth and Space Sciences
Source: http://www.copdess.org/
The newly formed Coalition for Data Publication in the Earth and Space Sciences intends to provide an organizational framework for Earth and space science publishers and data facilities to jointly implement and promote common policies and procedures for the publication and citation of data across Earth Science journals.
Marking the launch of the partnership is a joint Statement of Commitment signed by key publishers and repositories that is released on January 15, 2015.

Statement of Commitment from Earth and Space Science Publishers and Data Facilities
Coalition on Publishing Data in the Earth and Space Sciences
Earth and space science data are special resources, critical for advancing science and addressing societal challenges – from assessing and responding to natural hazards and climate change, to use of energy and natural resources, to managing our oceans, air, and land. The need for and value of open data have been encoded in major Earth and space science society position statements, foundation initiatives, and more recently in statements and directives from governments and funding agencies in the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, Australia, and elsewhere. This statement of commitment signals important progress and a continuing commitment by publishers and data facilities to enable open data in the Earth and space sciences.
Scholarly publication is a key high-value entry point in making data available, open, discoverable, and usable. Most publishers have statements related to the inclusion or release of data as part of publication, recognizing that inclusion of the full data enhances the value and is part of the integrity of the research. Unfortunately, the vast majority of data submitted along with publications are in formats and forms of storage that makes discovery and reuse difficult or impossible.
Repositories, facilities, and consortia dedicated to the collection, curation, storage, and distribution of scientific data have become increasingly central to the scientific enterprise. The leading Earth and space science repositories not only provide persistent homes for these data, but also ensure quality and enhance their value, access, and reuse. In addition to data, these facilities attend to the associated models and tools. Unfortunately, only a small fraction of the data, tools, and models associated with scientific publications makes it to these data facilities.
Connecting scholarly publication more firmly with data facilities thus has many advantages for science in the 21st century and is essential in meeting the aspirations of open, available, and useful data envisioned in the position statements and funder guidelines. To strengthen these connections, with the aim of advancing the mutual interests of authors, publishers, data facilities, and end-users of the data, a recent Earth and space science data and publishing conference, supported by the National Science Foundation, was held at AGU Headquarters on 2-3 October 2014. It brought together major publishers, data facilities, and consortia in the Earth and space sciences, as well as governmental, association, and foundation funders. Further informational meetings were held with Earth and space science societies, publishers, facilities, and librarians that were not present at the October meeting. Collectively the publishers, data facilities, and consortia focused on open data for Earth and space science formed a working group: Coalition on Publishing Data in the Earth and Space Sciences. As one outcome, this group collectively endorsed the following commitments to make meaningful progress toward the goals above. We encourage other publishers and data facilities and consortia to join in support.
Signatory data facilities, publishers, and societies, in order to meet the need for expanding access to data and to help authors, make the following commitments:
- We reaffirm and will ensure adherence to our existing repository, journal, and publisher policies and society position statements regarding data sharing and archiving of data, tools, and models.
- We encourage journals, publishers, and societies that do not have such statements to develop them to meet the aspirations of open access to research data and to support the integrity and value of published research. Examples of policies and position statements from signatory journals and societies are listed here.
- Earth and space science data should, to the greatest extent possible, be stored in appropriate domain repositories that are widely recognized and used by the community, follow leading practices, and can provide additional data services. We will work with researchers, funding agencies, libraries, institutions, and other stakeholders to direct data to appropriate repositories, respecting repository policies.
- Where it is not feasible or practical to store data on community-approved repositories, journals should encourage and support archiving of data using community-established leading practices, which may include supplementary material published with an article. These should strive to follow existing NISO guidelines.
Over the coming year, the signatory Earth and space science publishers, journals, and data facilities will work together to accomplish the following:
- Provide a usable online community directory of appropriate Earth and space science community repositories for data, tools, and models that meet leading standards on curation, quality, and access that can be used by authors and journals as a guide and reference for data deposition.
- Promulgate metadata information and domain standards, including in the online directory, to help simplify and standardize data deposition and re-use.
- Promote education of researchers in data management and organize and develop training and educational tools and resources, including as part of the online directory.
- Develop a working committee to update and curate this directory of repositories.
- Promote referencing of data sets using the Joint Declaration of Data Citation Principles, in which citations of data sets should be included within reference lists.
- Include in research papers concise statements indicating where data reside and clarifying availability.
- Promote and implement links to data sets in publications and corresponding links to journals in data facilities via persistent identifiers. Data sets should ideally be referenced using registered DOI’s.
- Promote use of other relevant community permanent identifiers for samples (IGSN), researchers (ORCID), and funders and grants (FundRef).
- Develop workflows within the repositories that support the peer review process (for example, embargo periods with secure access) and within the editorial management systems that will ease transfer of data to repositories.
A major challenge today is that much more Earth and space science data are being collected than can be reasonably stored, curated, or accessed. This includes physical samples, information about them, and digital data (sometimes streaming at rates of terabytes per minute). Researchers and publishers are looking for guidance on what constitutes archival data across diverse fields and disciplines. The major data repositories provide leading practices that should help guide the types of samples, data, metadata, and data processing descriptions that should be maintained, including information about derivations, processing, and uncertainty.
To enable improved coordination and availability of open data, we encourage funders to support these commitments, ensure a robust infrastructure of data repositories, and enable broad outreach with researchers. As a general rule, data management plans promulgated by funders should indicate that release into leading repositories, where available, of those data necessary to support published results is expected at publication. The ultimate measure of success is in the replicability of science, generation of new discoveries, and in progress on the grand challenges facing society that depend on the integration of open data, tools, and models from multiple sources.

- for 150 yr had a strategy in food system focused on yield - maximize short term yield
- currently have enough productively to produce enough food for all people and even for 9 billion by 2050.
-if drive harder, need to address waste and depletion. Agriculture production is only 1 part of the system
recommendation 7: Create comprehensive, shared, integrated information system that encompass human and ecological dimensions
Note: expect major spikes in demand - examples to show new demand
Nimble systems to scan integrated information patters for detection and intervention - need to get to pre-bang. need for safer space or resilliance
Q - food security and animals - require key definitions - the relationship of food security to health is important

Abstract/Agenda
Pursuing sustainability, whether at the national or local level, requires systems thinking to understand the complex linkages among food, energy, water, materials, waste management, ecosystem services, economic development, and social issues such as environmental justice. The speaker will describe a systems approach based on the Triple Value (3V) framework, which captures the dynamic interactions between human society and natural ecosystems. This approach is being implemented through a number of ongoing efforts being led by the EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD). For example, ORD has launched collaborative projects in New England and several other U.S. regions to improve coastal resilience and sustainability. These regions are experiencing water quality problems due to excess nutrients released from agriculture, organic wastes, and other sources, and these problems are compounding by increasing storm intensity due to climate change. To help policy-makers develop sustainable solutions, ORD has developed a dynamic, interactive modeling tool that is capable of analyzing the costs and benefits of alternative policy interventions on a watershed scale.
About the Speaker
Dr. Joseph Fiksel is a faculty member in the Department of Integrated Systems Engineering at The Ohio State University, where he co-founded the Center for Resilience. From 2010 to 2014 he served as Special Assistant for Sustainability at ORD, working closely with the leadership to establish collaborative initiatives with EPA program and regional offices. He is an internationally recognized authority on sustainability and resilience, with over 25 years of research and consulting experience for government agencies, multi-national companies, and industry consortia. Dr. Fiksel received a B.Sc. from M.I.T. and a Ph.D. from Stanford University in Operations Research. He has held a number of positions in the private sector, and prior to joining Ohio State he was Vice President for Life Cycle Management at Battelle.
Notes
Risk - new risks emerging including stress on planet (catastrophic events)
currently live in a global village - learn live in a new era
Plan - take a systems approach
resilience - capacity of a system to survive, adapt, and flourish in the face of turbulent change and uncertainty.
Q - 3V framework - human and social capital - may not have the capital that we need - this is often overlooked

Teaser: Earth sciences organizations from around the world have achieved various levels of maturity in taking advantage of our digital age
Abstract/Agenda
Please note: This session will be a continuation of sessions 299 and 300 (Jan 7) and will be a working session that broadens the scope of subject matter, and explores publication opportunities – journal articles, white papers, etc. – on matters specific to all 3 sessions.
Earth sciences organizations from around the world – including US government agencies, federally funded efforts and academic institutions – have achieved various levels of maturity in taking advantage of our digital age. Concepts of participatory web, software interoperability, technology transfer, scaling/re-use, big data and open science are no longer “new and emerging.” They have emerged and – in some cases – are tied to government directives, including, for example:
- Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 2013 memo: Open Data Policy-Managing Information as an Asset; http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/memoranda/2013/m-13-13.pdf
- Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) 2013 memo: Increasing access to the results of Federally funded research; http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/microsites/ostp/ostp_public_access_memo_2013.pdf
- White House 2013 executive order: Making Open and Machine Readable the New Default for Government Information; http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2013/05/09/executive-order-making-open-and-machine-readable-new-default-government-
- Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 2012, Digital Government Strategy; http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/egov/digital-government/digital-government.html
- White House 2009 memo: Transparency and Open Government; http://www.whitehouse.gov/the_press_office/Transparency_and_Open_Government and http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/assets/memoranda_fy2009/m09-12.pdf
An organization’s efficiency, transparency and/or ability to innovate -- in the context of Earth sciences -- are directly tied with that organization’s:
- Maturity in embracing data and software interoperability, scaling and-re-use;
- Scientific data infrastructure (discoverability, open data, curation, etc.);
- Ability to practice external technology transfer (e.g., code sharing, partnership building, decentralized research and development);
- Use of participatory web (crowdsourcing, dynamic multilateral communication with society, etc.), particularly in the context of secondary or applied science (e.g., decision support, environmental assessment, meta analyses, syntheses, reviews);
- Horizon scanning and futures analysis (e.g. getting ahead of the curve by exploring and leveraging emerging digital technologies and new business models, as opposed to retroactively).
Once considered a tool for getting Earth sciences work done, cyber technology (computers, internet, etc.) has become essential, prompting some Earth sciences organizations to question their institutional and organizational structures. Over the past thirty years, Earth and information science disciplines have merged across a multi-dimensional spectrum. Pre-digital organizational charts or agency structures often maintain unhelpful, dichotomous perceptions between IT and Earth science disciplines and activities. This has led to inefficiencies and communication problems, reliance on external contractors to connect IT and Earth sciences (e.g., developing decision support applications), and an emergence of ad-hoc cyber-related working groups (e.g., GIS workgroups, R-user groups) within, and on top of, existing organization structures. In response to changing times, some organizations have created new offices and laboratories dedicated to topics associated with cyber innovation (e.g., USAID Global Development Lab and United Nations Global Pulse). The US National Science Foundation identified new Cyber Infrastructure challenges and opportunities almost a decade ago and are now funding many large-scale data, infrastructure and informatics activities (e.g., NEON Inc., EarthCube). Research Infrastructures globally can benefit greatly by sharing lessons learned and experiences to better guide progress toward interoperability.
Objectives
- Continue working on objectives of ESIP sessions 299 and 300, with broader focus – that is, this session will expand on the topics of OSTP and open government directives (see above description), not limited to the topic of open geodata (http://commons.esipfed.org/node/7300 and http://commons.esipfed.org/node/7299);
- Explore publication opportunities on the status and progress of the above topics; explore various journal article and publication approaches for disseminating information from this session and proceeding sessions 299 and 300; build authorship teams around several manuscripts and begin outlining and writing those manuscripts; topics may include, for example:
- Socio-technical system of open science,
- Altmetrics in open science,
- Mechanisms of data and software publication,
- Case studies of federal efforts and agencies, and their digital maturity,
- Other topics identified in sessions 299 and 300;
- Build an informal community of practice at the ESIP Meeting and identify the driving passions that will be the glue to keep the community active and involved;
- Set a schedule for knowledge sharing events;
- Identify the best examples of Tiger Teams, communities of practice, public-private partnerships, changes to organizational charts, additions to existing organizational structures, etc., that have been successful on complex issues such as these;
- Move towards an agreement among organizations to work more closely together on priority issues;
- Develop a “landscape” of the major informatics players (e.g., ESIP, COOPEUS, RDA, ICSU-WDS, GEOSS, EarthCube, Eye on Earth Alliance, etc.), globally.
Approach
Please note that much of the following may be addressed in sessions 299 and 300, and continued in this session.
- Assess where organizations stand in their evolution (maturity) to embrace modern digital technology, from an organizational and institutional perspective (including goals and timetables);
- Learn and share what other agencies have tried in their efforts to meet: 1) the above cyber-related government directives in the Earth science context – What would they have done differently? What strategies worked really well? What to avoid? – and 2) develop and apply innovative alternatives to business as usual;
- Determine future steps in how organizations might help each other move forward efficiently and in cooperation (to better address internal issues and to collaborate externally on game-changing approaches);
- Explore, vet and overcome existing and future challenges (rank the challenges and the probability of success that they will be overcome);
- Develop horizon issues on the cyber landscape (How can US government agencies get ahead of the game over the next 10 years of digital evolutions?).
Topical Focus
When possible, session presenters and participants will be encouraged to use examples and case studies in the thematic area for ESIP’s Winter meeting: “Earth Science and Data in Support of Food Resilience: Climate, Energy, Water Nexus.”
Anticipated attendees
Approximately 30 to 50 Earth and information science practitioners and managers, from across academia, US government agencies and US government-funded efforts.
Session format
This half-day session will be geared toward writing, documenting and following up on sessions 299 and 300, with broader focus – that is, this session will expand on the topics of OSTP and open government directives (see above description), including, but going beyond the topic of open geodata. We will begin to draft several manuscripts, white papers, and/or journal articles. This session will begin with a plenary review of sessions 299 and 300; next, we will review the agenda and potential writing topics for this session. Depending on number of participants, we will split into small writing break-out groups for between 0.5 and 1.5 hours, followed by report out / facilitated discussions, and discussion of follow up plans for future publication development and submittal.
Organizers' roles
We will work with session organizers from sessions 299 and 300 to ensure continuity among the 3 sessions. We will introduce this session and facilitate break out groups, plenary discussions and writing efforts.

Leveraging Earth Science Data and Analytics in Food Systems - Molly Jahn, University of Wisconsin
Notes:
- for 150 yr had a stragey in food sytem focused on yield - maximize short term yield
- currently have enough productively to produce enough food for all people and even for 9 billion by 2050.
-if drive harder, need to address waste and depition. Agric productive is only 1 part of the system
recommendation 7: Create comprehensive, shared, integrated information system that encompass human and ecological dimensions
Note: expect major spikes in demand - examples to show new demand
Nimble systems to scan integrated information patters for detection and interventsion - need to get to pre-bang. need for safer space or resiliance
Q - food security and animals - require key definitions - the relationship of food security to health is important

A Systems Approach to Food Resilience - Joseph Fiksel, Ohio State University
Abstract/Agenda:
Pursuing sustainability, whether at the national or local level, requires systems thinking to understand the complex linkages among food, energy, water, materials, waste management, ecosystem services, economic development, and social issues such as environmental justice. The speaker will describe a systems approach based on the Triple Value (3V) framework, which captures the dynamic interactions between human society and natural ecosystems. This approach is being implemented through a number of ongoing efforts being led by the EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD). For example, ORD has launched collaborative projects in New England and several other U.S. regions to improve coastal resilience and sustainability. These regions are experiencing water quality problems due to excess nutrients released from agriculture, organic wastes, and other sources, and these problems are compounding by increasing storm intensity due to climate change. To help policy-makers develop sustainable solutions, ORD has developed a dynamic, interactive modeling tool that is capable of analyzing the costs and benefits of alternative policy interventions on a watershed scale.
About the Speaker
Dr. Joseph Fiksel is a faculty member in the Department of Integrated Systems Engineering at The Ohio State University, where he co-founded the Center for Resilience. From 2010 to 2014 he served as Special Assistant for Sustainability at ORD, working closely with the leadership to establish collaborative initiatives with EPA program and regional offices. He is an internationally recognized authority on sustainability and resilience, with over 25 years of research and consulting experience for government agencies, multi-national companies, and industry consortia. Dr. Fiksel received a B.Sc. from M.I.T. and a Ph.D. from Stanford University in Operations Research. He has held a number of positions in the private sector, and prior to joining Ohio State he was Vice President for Life Cycle Management at Battelle.
Notes:
Risk - new risks emerging incl. stress on planet (catastrophic events)
currently live in a global village - learn live in a new era
Plan - take a systems approach
resilience - capacity of a system to sruvive, adapt, and flourish in the face of turbulent chang and uncertainity.
Q - 3V framework - human and social captial - may not have the capital that we need - this is often overlooked

Enhanced Use of Earth Observations for Societal Benefit Panel - Moderated by Curt Tilmes, NASA
Abstract/Agenda:
The Federal Government invests more than $3 billion annually in civil Earth observations to provide decision makers with information vital to improve citizens’ lives, protect life and property, promote national security and economic growth, and advance scientific inquiry. Responding to a request from Congress, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), through the interagency U.S. Group on Earth Observations (USGEO), has initiated a triennial national assessment and planning process to better inform agencies’ long-term investments in Earth observations and to ensure continuity of information needed for public services and long-term research in the public interest. USGEO also coordinates the Big Earth Data Initiative, a long-term multiagency effort to improve the overall discoverability, accessibility, and usability of Earth observation data.
Two closely-related near-term Executive branch initiatives, the Climate Data Initiative (CDI) and Climate Resilience Toolkit (CRT), collectively known as Climate Data and Tools (CDAT), require guidance, oversight, and coordination involving a broad range of Federal organizations and external partners. The CDAT initiative provides a National and Federal operational capability where governmental, non-governmental, private, and public data, services and applications are integrated and made easily accessible to the public. These data, services, and applications are helping to inform and address national and regional climate resilience issues, including those related to food security.
White House staff will provide an overview of the 2014 National Plan for Civil Earth Observations, USGEO, BEDI, and CDAT, and Federal agencies’ work in promoting the use of Earth observations for critical public and private sector decision-making. They will also participate in a subsequent panel chaired by NASA to discuss key issues and answer audience questions.
