Sustaining CDR Elements

• A long-term commitment of resources should be made to the generation and archiving of CDRs and associated documentation, data, and metadata.

• Access to reprocessing resources is required when better sensor calibrations and improved algorithms become available.

1See, in NRC (2004a), pp. 3-4, especially Supporting Recommendation 1: “NOAA should utilize an organizational structure where a high-level leadership council within NOAA receives advice from an advisory council that provides input to the process on behalf of the climate research community and other stakeholders. The advisory council should be supported by instrument and science teams responsible for overseeing the generation of climate data records.”
