The Economic Value of Earth Science Information
This forum will address issues related to the economic value of Earth science data. Topics may include:
- Next IPCC assessment
- Data needs for decision making, policies, energy/water budgets
- Climate mitigation strategies/ carbon taxes
- Decision support tools/systems, Policies
- What information do we need to assess the value of Earth science data?
Ideas discussed in this Wed. afternoon Forum can run over into the open meeting sessions on Thursday. If you would like to give a presentation, please enter your name and title of talk (or contact Rob.Raskin@jpl.nasa.gov). An expected outcome of the Forum is the formation of an ESIP Cluster on Economics, Decision Making, and Policies.
