摘要

The Committee on Hydrologic Science (COHS) is a standing committee organized and overseen by the National Research Councils (NRC) Water Science and Technology Board (WSTB) that addresses research and educational opportunities in the hydrologic sciences. COHS is oriented toward the scientific activity of U.S. federal agencies with programmatic interests in hydrologic research. Its objectives are to (1) provide a venue for discussion of priority research topics in the hydrologic sciences; (2) identify opportunities for development of new National Academies studies; and (3) provide oversight of projects conducted under its auspices (COHS as presently constituted does not itself produce reports). From time to time, COHS gathers U.S. Government agency representatives and others to outline some of the key issues in hydrologic science that confront their agencies and the nation as a whole. One such issue, which began as an unpublished discussion paper titled Hydrology from Space, was eventually recast and funded as an ad hoc study that produced the NRC consensus report Integrating Multiscale Observations of U.S. Waters (NRC, 2008). The workshop that is the basis of this Summary began similarly, and may yet lead to a traditional study. NRC workshops are organized by formally appointed planning committees. The members of this committee were Dennis Lettenmaier, University of Washington, Victor Baker, University of Arizona, and David Ford, David Ford Consulting Engineers, Sacramento. The other members of COHS, who contributed to drafting of the original discussion paper and played various roles in the workshop itself, are Eric Wood (Chair), Princeton University, Daniel (Pete) Loucks, Cornell University, Emily Stanley, University of Wisconsin, Charles Vorosmarty, City University of New York, and Chunmaio Zheng, University of Alabama. This document presents the rapporteurs summary of the forum discussions and does not necessarily reflect the views of the COHS members or other participants. Furthermore, the summary does not intend to imply agreement of COHS members or attendees with summary content either in part or in entirety. This workshop summary has been reviewed in draft form by persons chosen for their diverse perspectives and technical expertise in accordance with procedures approved by the National Research Councils Report Review Committee. The purposes of this review are to provide candid and critical comments that will assist the institution in making the published summary as sound as possible and to ensure that the summary meets institutional standards of objectivity, evidence, and responsiveness to the study charge. The review comments and draft manuscript remain confidential to protect the integrity of the deliberative process. We wish to thank the following for their participation in the review of this summary: Eric F. Wood, Princeton University; Gerald E. Galloway, Jr., University of Maryland; Jery R. Stedinger, Cornell University; and David T. Ford, Consultant Engineer.
