Coordinate and develop new precedents and guidelines requiring the use of advanced scientific techniques and the modification and extension of theories, precedents, and scientific practices. Integrate emerging technologies into program systems and concepts and determine impact on tactics, techniques, and procedures. Develop data applications and systems to collect and assess scientific information. Use computer-based data analyses and understanding of Earth and atmospheric sciences to solve problems that extend beyond normal day-to-day operations, i.e., where problem definition and available data are incomplete or uncertain. Develop tests for evaluating new or modified instrumentation, methods, techniques, practices, and customized products in the earth and atmospheric scientific area. Provide guidance to contractors or associate scientists and take action to insure end products meet specifications and requirements for the purposes intended. Develop contractor scope of work and technical performance requirements to perform system studies and assessments.
