“America’s NOAA National Weather Service: Protecting Lives, Livelihoods, and A Way of Life” Water Resources Vision 2020 Deliver a broader suite of improved water services to support management of the Nation’s Water Supply RFCs will produce gridded forecasts of stream flow, soil moisture/temperature, snow water equivalent, water temperature/salinity, etc. Expand role of the WFOs to help local decision makers use enhanced water forecasts, and function as decision-support experts for high-impact flood, drought, and water quality events

IWRSS “summit-to-sea” high-resolution water resources information and forecasts Snowpack Precipitation Soil Moisture, Runoff Evapotranspiration Groundwater River flow Surface Storage Water Quality Others Local Information Watershed – to – National Information

“America’s NOAA National Weather Service: Protecting Lives, Livelihoods, and A Way of Life” Integrated Water Resources Science and Services USGSUSGSUSACEUSACE NOAA NOAA NOAA is leading the multi-agency IWRSS consortium to: –Streamline access to Federal water resource capabilities –Share technology, information, models, best practices –Develop interoperable tools –Create a Common Operating Picture

Integrated Water Resources Science and Services (IWRSS) Purpose, Scope, Vision and Goals Cross- Cutting Themes National and Regional Operations and Business Concepts Programmatic Framework Value Propositions Design and Implementation Human Dimensions Technical: Information Services Operational Science National Center Regional Support Demonstrations Roles and Interactions Authorities Objectives and Goals Governance

Integrate information and simplify access Increase Accuracy and Timeliness Water Information Provide New Summit-to-Sea High-resolution Water Resources Information and Forecasts IWRSS Goals Improved Information and Services IWRSS will support next-generation adaptive water- related planning, preparedness and response activities

Establishing and maintaining a strong participatory process for building the social capital necessary for success Implementing sound IT engineering practices to promote the coordination and integration of interagency activities to achieve common goals Apply physical and social science strategies to deliver an information system that is responsive to the needs of stakeholders Integrated Water Resources Science and Services Three Cross-cutting Themes
