Reason for Presence Base Necessary to Support Presence Research Support Pyramid

Efficiency Improvements Allow Greater Angle of Repose Reason for Presence Base Necessary to Support Presence Research Support Pyramid

Added Demand for Presence Added Base to Support Added Demand Research Support Pyramid

Research Support Currency Mostly not a “buy by the pound” commodity Not a simple function of $$ Capacity

Major and Minor categories Capacity = “Resource Baskets” Major Beds, Flights, Water, Power, Fuel, Connectivity … Minor Tents, Food, Boats, Lumber, Light Vehicles… Research Support Currency

Capacity is a function of: Location Time of Year Lead Time Cost to Provide Cost and Capability to Expand Major or Minor
