Appendix C
Virtual Town Hall Questionnaire
The Virtual Town Hall website (http://nas-sites.org/dsos2015/) was active from November 8, 2013, to March 15, 2014, and generated 416 comments. The questions below were posed to the ocean science community, to be used as input to the committee. All responses have been archived, and the website will remain live until the end of 2015. The website was advertised through numerous professional society, special interest, and National Science Foundation websites and/or listservs and was disseminated at the 2013 AGU Fall Meeting and the 2014 Ocean Sciences Meeting.

- Your affiliation
- Your discipline
- Across all ocean science disciplines, please list 3 important scientific questions that you believe will drive ocean research over the decade.
- Within your own discipline, please list 3 important scientific questions that you believe will drive ocean research over the next decade.
- Please list 3 ideas for programs, technology, infrastructure, or facilities that you believe will play a major role in addressing the above questions over the next decade. Please consider both existing and new technology/facilities/ infrastructure/programs that could be deployed in this timeframe. What mechanisms might be identified to best leverage these investments (interagency collaborations, international partnerships, etc.)?
- Other comments pertinent to the committee’s charge.
