Coastal Component
• Comprised of federal agencies (National level) and non-federal (Regional level)
• Geographic extent: EEZ to the head of the tide• Based on 26 variables• Data Management and Communications
(DMAC) is a major focus that is intended to be enterprise wide from National to Regional scales

Evaluation Group
• 5 teams, 64 scientists/analysts• SURA is overall lead for execution• Began in June 2010; now in the second year• Multi-sector engagement (federal agency,
academia, industry)• Goals:
• Less about model than process• Focus is on stable infrastructure (testing
environment, tools, standard obs) and transition to operations
• Enable Modeling and Analysis subsystem
