For those of you who have an interest in the research transition process or NWS social science research, you might want to consider attending the following NOAA Library talk.

Presenters: Gina Eosco, OAR Weather Program Office, Social Science and The Forecasting a Continuum of Environmental Threats (FACETS) program manager; Castle Williams, FedWriters supporting the OAR Weather Program Office, Social Science R2X Coordinator

Summary: Together, the Weather Program Office (WPO) Social Science Program (SSP) and the National Weather Service continue to evaluate how best to transition social science research findings into applications and share operational challenges to inform research. Through various engagements 1,2, WPO learned that R2X misunderstandings exist among the social and physical research and operational communities. By implementing meaningful process changes, WPO SSP will highlight recommendations and best practices for transitioning social science research by emphasizing knowledge transfer and nurturing trust between researchers and operational practitioners.
