CPO manages competitive research programs through which NOAA funds high-priority climate science, assessments, decision support research, outreach, education, and capacity-building activities designed to advance the understanding of Earth's climate system and to foster its application for effective decision making. CPO supports research across the United States and internationally. CPO also provides strategic guidance for the agency's climate science and services programs, and supports NOAA's contributions to the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) and its National Climate Assessment, as well as international endeavors such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
