The National Research Council (NRC) has been conducting decadal
surveys in the Earth and space sciences since 1964, and released
the latest five surveys in the past 5 years, four of which were
only completed in the past 3 years. Lessons Learned in Decadal
Planning in Space Science is the summary of a workshop held in
response to unforseen challenges that arose in the implementation
of the recommendations of the decadal surveys. This report takes a
closer look at the decadal survey process and how to improve this
essential tool for strategic planning in the Earth and space
sciences. Workshop moderators, panelists, and participants lifted
up the hood on the decadal survey process and scrutinized every
element of the decadal surveys to determine what lessons can be
gleaned from recent experiences and applied to the design and
execution of future decadal surveys. Table of Contents Front Matter
