The U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) is an interagency
program, established by the Global Change Research Act (GCRA) of
1990, mandated by Congress to "assist the Nation and the world to
understand, assess, predict, and respond to human-induced and
natural processes of global change". Since the USGCRP began,
scientific understanding of global change has increased and the
information needs of the nation have changed dramatically. A better
understanding of what is changing and why can help decision makers
in the public and private sectors cope with ongoing change.
Accomplishments of the U.S. Global Change Research Program
highlights the growth of global change science in the quarter
century that the USGCRP has been in existence, and documents some
of its contributions to that growth through its primary functions
of interagency planning and coordination, and of synthesis of
research and practice to inform decision making. Table of Contents
