Working Group Lead
Michael A. Hesse, NASA GSFC
Ronald E. Turner, Analytic Services Inc. (ANSER)

The “Research to Operations” cross-discipline working group will represent to the Decadal Survey Steering committee the interplay between research and operations. 
 
Specific Questions this WG addresses:

• How are observations, models, or data collected for research used to support operations?
• How are operational observations, models, or data used to support research?
• What are key science questions that need to be answered to substantially improve operational support?
• What is the best strategy for improving the transition from research to operations and societal benefit
