SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Context: The U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) is mandated under the Global Change Research Act (GCRA) of 1990 to conduct a quadrennial National Climate Assessment (NCA). Under its current, updated decadal strategic plan (http://go.usa.gov/​x9MCQ), USGCRP is building sustained assessment capacity. The sustained assessment supports the Nation's ability to understand, anticipate, and respond to risks and potential impacts brought about by global environmental change. Work on the fourth National Climate Assessment is currently underway.

To provide clarity on the process of developing the Assessment, and opportunities for community involvement, the USGCRP will be continually providing updates on the status of the Assessment and engagement opportunities via http://www.globalchange.gov/​nca4. Public notices will be posted at http://www.globalchange.gov/​notices, and updates on Assessment milestones will be posted at http://www.globalchange.gov/​news.
