... (CAA, CAPS, CESAS, and CSSP) were reconstituted as "discipline committees." The discipline committees function the same as a standing committee but the new status enables them to also draft publications containing consensus conclusions and findings on the implementation of their respective decadal surveys.

... The meeting's first day included updates from the standing and discipline committee chairs; a status report from and discussion with Thomas Zurbuchen, NASA SMD; a session on international activities, including an update on the Board's Forum for New Leaders in Space Science; an update from the ESSC Chair Athena Coustenis; and a focus session on research and analysis programs and improving peer review with Hal Arkes (The Ohio State University) and Scott Highhouse (Bowling Green State University)

... Green, the director of NASA's Planetary Science Division, was concerned with the identification of potential mission studies to be initiated in preparation for consideration by the next planetary science decadal survey, to be initiated in 2020. Work on the publication began during Space Science Week, and a complete draft of the 20-page publication was completed in late April and sent to external reviewers in early June.
