SCCWRP works in partnership with its scientific advisory board, the Commission’s Technical Advisory Group (CTAG), to develop and continuously update a forward-looking, 10-year Research Plan for each of SCCWRP’s major thematic research areas. Written for knowledgeable scientists working in each particular field, these comprehensive technical documents provide an overview of how SCCWRP conceptually approaches each research theme, how various individual projects and studies fit into SCCWRP’s long-term research strategy, and broadly supported priorities for SCCWRP’s future research directions.
