In 2019, the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) established a U.S. Global Energy and Water EXchanges (GEWEX) Program, a U.S. specific, multi-agency effort focused on Federal water and energy cycle research that aligns scientifically with the GEWEX core project of the World Climate Research Program.  Previous GEWEX-related projects in the U.S. include the GEWEX America’s Prediction Project (GAPP), supported by NOAA and coordinated with relevant NASA, DOE, and NSF-funded programs. Initial efforts of U.S. GEWEX may include leveraging collaboration between current agency investments and exploring improving connectivity between different 1) precipitation modeling and prediction efforts, and/or 2) land-surface interaction field campaigns and research studies. In this town hall, USGCRP executive and office leadership and Federal program managers will share early developments and outlooks. and engage with the AMS community on pressing science needs and opportunities.
