Non Technical Summary
The United States has a social and economic corn-based system that supports the very successful production of food, fuel, and fiber. However, this system imposes a number of unintended environmental consequences, among them contributions to hypoxia in the Gulf of Mexico and production of greenhouse gases (GHGs). Increased climate uncertainty and change are likely to exacerbate environmental impacts and threaten long-term sustainability and resilience unless mitigation and adaptive strategies are identified and implemented. More than 1/3 of the North Central Region farms produced corn in 2007 on over 76.3 million acres, with nearly half of these acres tile drained. Our collective Land Grant Universities and the Agricultural Research Service Centers have a several decades-long and productive history of studying soil and agronomic processes by monitoring and experimenting with interactions between nitrogen (N) and plant growth, N loss and water fluxes, soil organic carbon (C) storage in relation to soil quality and crop yields, and tillage systems as best management practices for N loss, C storage contributions and water flux, and soil and soil organic C loss. Despite this scientific legacy, gaps remain in this body of work, particularly with respect to climate variation and climate extremes. This project addresses the fragmented research on corn-based systems by uniquely integrating individual, discipline-based findings into a trans-disciplinary and multi-state functional network that connects current and future scientists, farmers, educators, and extension specialists and facilitates learning and exchange of expert and local knowledge. A team from 12 institutions across nine states will address these gaps and the agronomic and societal challenge to mitigate and adapt the North Central corn-based cropping system to climate change. The vision is to create a coordinated functional network to develop science-based knowledge on climate mitigation and adaptation that informs policy development and guides on-farm, watershed level, and public decision making. Standardized protocols and a network of 21 carefully selected sites will be used to provide baseline measurements on GHGs, C, N, and water usage data and to evaluate a suite of crop management practices. These practices include tillage, cover crops, crop rotations, drainage water management, and enhanced N management techniques. Data from these sites will be archived in a central database and used in conjunction with public climate data. Physical, climate, sociological, and economic models will be applied in an iterative way to establish strengths and weaknesses of a set of cropping practices. Life cycle analyses, social, and economic findings will be used to develop public policy recommendations and engage producers and stakeholders in managing for climate uncertainty and environmental sustainability. This project integrates research, extension, and education; builds capacity for extension to address climate change needs of stakeholders; and prepares the next generation of scientists for interdisciplinary research on the intersection of agriculture and climate.

Goals / Objectives
Despite a long and productive history of studying soil and agronomic processes by many research institutions, gaps in knowledge exist with respect to climate variation and extremes. These gaps include knowledge about coupled cycling of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and water; the effects on C, N, and water fluxes of corn systems management practices; and the willingness of the agricultural community to adopt practices to manage risk and enhance long-term sustainability. This project addresses these gaps and builds a framework for science-based policy and decision making through five long-term objectives. (1) Develop standardized methodologies for estimating C, N, and water footprints of corn production in the North Central region and perform baseline monitoring. Soil quality, C sequestration, greenhouse gases (GHGs), inorganic N, and soil water will be measured and correlated with agronomic indicators for sites across the region. A set of codified protocols will be developed and personnel will be trained to gather accurate and comparable data. These data will be archived in a publicly available database. (2) Perform field tests across 21 baseline sites in eight states to evaluate the impacts of a suite of crop management practices on C, N, and water footprints. Measurements from control plots will be compared to plots employing a suite of practices that have promise in reducing GHGs and N in tile flow and potential acceptability to farmers. Practices include no-till, extended crop rotations, drainage water management, cover crops, and canopy N-sensors. Data will be archived in the database. (3) Apply climate and physical models to synthesize results from the field tests and extend them to predict climate and economic scenarios. These include DAYCENT for coupling crop and climate models, the Soil Landscape Interface Model for extending results to farm scale, and SWAT to extend these models to the watershed level and incorporate economic land-use models with physical and climate models. (4) Perform comprehensive life cycle analyses of proposed practices and evaluate the socio-economic-environmental willingness of producers to adopt new cropping systems through feedback loops between social science research, biophysical field research, monitoring, and modeling of production systems. (5) Integrate education, extension, outreach, and stakeholder participation across all aspects of the program, focusing on place-based education and outreach programs. Farmers will participate via I-FARM, an interactive tool to analyze the economic, agronomic, and social acceptability of the practices. These objectives will build a high-functioning, regionally coordinated network of science-based research, extension, and education that will inform decision and policy making. Outputs will include codified standard protocols for data collection and researchers trained in these methodologies; regional data and information for stakeholders; integration of farmer knowledge and experience with research knowledge to guide future research; trained students, teachers, and extension educators; peer-to-peer farmer watershed groups; and Extension and peer-reviewed publications.
Project Methods
The project creates a region-wide coordinated functional network to develop science-based knowledge. The research team is comprised of soil scientists, extension field specialists, sociologists, anthropologists, economists, agricultural engineers, modelers, and climatologists. An external advisory board with broad managerial, producer, industry, and scientific expertise will provide advice and serve as a network into important stakeholder groups. The research team will establish protocols, train field researchers, and collect baseline C, N, and water usage data from 21 plots across the network. The plots are representative of the range of soil types, topographies, climates, and tile drainage systems across the North Central corn region. Data from these control plots will be compared to results from plots subjected to a suite of crop and tillage management practices. The team will develop a Central Database for collection, quality control, and archival of project data. Process models, historical data, and climate projections will be combined with project data to calibrate biophysical models at ever-larger scales: field, farm, landscape. The models will be used to perform "what if" analyses about observed climate variability and projected climate change. A landscape-scale modeling system will be developed to integrate economic land use models with biophysical models and projections from regional climate models. This framework will be used to determine the optimal targeting of cover crops, drainage management, and other practices within a corn-based cropping system under possible environmental goals. The team will also analyze the social, economic, and environmental acceptability of adaptive and mitigative cropping systems, which will inform the development of the feedback loops between the field research, monitoring, and production systems modeling. Social science research and education, extension, and outreach activities will inform the development of policy and programming to encourage the adoption of appropriate systems. Education, extension, outreach, and stakeholder participation will be integrated across all aspects of the project. A multi-pronged approach will use focused, place-based educational opportunities that incorporate inquiry and interactive learning strategies at all levels (9-12, undergraduate, graduate, extension, stakeholders) to increase learning and foster a new generation of scientists, farmers, entrepreneurs, and citizens. The team will develop Grade 9-12 Climate Discovery Modules; short courses for college credit; student internships; Extension-facilitated participatory exchanges; farmer-led watershed groups; and graduate student training, mentoring, and career development. Information will also be disseminated via eXtension and a project website. All education and extension activities will incorporate formative and summative evaluations, and the project will engage an independent body to ensure the project is on track to meet all milestones. Measures of success will also include papers, collaborations, competitive grants, on-farm management changes, and numbers of students in learning activities and career training.

Outputs
Target Audience:The CSCAP team has had six key audiences with each receiving attention and efforts for Y5-Y6 reporting period: (1) all team members; (2) CSCAP graduate students; (3) affiliated undergraduate students; (4) agricultural stakeholders including farmers and the agribusiness industry; (5) citizen stakeholders including high school students; and (6) the scientific community. First, the team actively worked to develop individual team members through cross-training of others' disciplines, scientific discovery, and team science exercises that built transdisciplinary capacity. Second, the team focused on uniquely training CSCAP graduate students to emerge from their programs with the ability to comprehend complex societal and environmental challenges from a multi-pronged cross disciplinary and stakeholder collaborative approach. Third, internship opportunities, mentoring, and employment within laboratories and field research experiments allowed several inlets for undergraduate students to work alongside and learn from team scientists. Fourth, the team's extension educators built relational networks and worked to build knowledge of and adaptation to a changing climate among farmers and agribusiness stakeholders in their respective states. Fifth, the team conducted non-formal learning events to educate and build capacity among high school teachers. Sixth, the team worked hard to discover new science and understanding behind the physical and social factors influencing the capacity for corn-based cropping systems to mitigate and adapt to a changing climate; these findings have been (and will continue to be) communicated through societal presentations, refereed journals, and technical reports. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?The CSCAP team has included a diverse set of expertise and specialties across the faculty, postdoctoral researchers, topic-based specialists/technical staff, graduate students, and undergraduate students. A total of 133 undergraduate students, 86 graduate students (29% minority and 49% women), and 19 postdoctoral researchers (74% minority and 10% women) have been members of this team; this equates to a total of 3701 months for this cohort of next generation scientists. Our team's next generation cohort in Y5 and Y6 included 54 graduate students and 11 post-doctoral scientists. The numbers reported for FTE and CIP in this REEport are less since they only include the final year (Y6) individuals. During Y1-Y5, four graduate students were elected by their cohorts to serve as graduate student representatives and members of the Leadership Team. These student leaders worked to connect graduate students to the opportunities within the CSCAP graduate student body and facilitate transdisciplinary engagement. Each student served a one-year appointment: Andrea Basche, PhD student, Iowa State University: 2012-2013 Lindsay Pease, PhD student, The Ohio State University: 2013- 2014 Gabrielle Roesch-McNally, PhD student, Iowa State University: 2014-2015 Samuel Haruna, PhD student, Lincoln University: 2015-2016 Graduate students completed outstanding work and were active, contributing members as well as represented our team in professional meetings and USDA functions such as past Project Director meetings (2014: Andrea Basche, Iowa State University, and Lindsay Pease, The Ohio State University) and invited to participate in PINEMAP annual meeting and participate in the graduate student discussions (2014: Gabrielle Roesch-McNally, Iowa State University, and Chris Eidson, The Ohio State University). At our 2015 team meeting, graduate student posters were part of a competition with the top 3 awarded for excellence: 1st: Mike Dunbar (Iowa State University), 2nd: Chris Eidson (The Ohio State University), and 3rd: Trevor Frank and Joe Rorick (Purdue University). Awarding of the top posters each year has been a highly successful means to recognizing our student scientists and acknowledging their excellence. Several of the students have also received awards at their Universities as well as conferences. Graduate students have been involved in the successful publication of 66 journal articles which they have authored/co-authored to-date including an article solely authored by them in the 2014 special issue of Journal of Soil and Water Conservation. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?The team has been productive with a Y5 & Y6 total of 88 refereed journals, 20 MS thesis, 12 PhD dissertations, 22 proposals, 5 books or book chapter, 13 extension publications, 334 conference presentations, 113 extension presentations, 3 education webinars, 4 education camp, 5 websites, 22 project reports or promotional pieces, 2 white papers, 14 blog entries, 21 popular press pieces (such as Corn and Soybean Digest and Successful Farming), 4 University press, 5 radio and TV spots, 8 videos, and 6 news releases. The outputs included with this REEport are a subset of the total listed here of Y5 and Y6 outputs due to space limitations. These outputs are in addition to those already reported in previous REEports for Years 1-4. The team website (www.sustainablecorn.org) had an increase in number of unique visitors (up 16%) with 31,516 page views in Y5. We initiated an effort to make our informational and instructional products available to target audiences (farmers, agricultural advisors, Extension educators and high school teachers) post-project. Sixty of our fact sheets, white papers, the Resilient Agriculture magazine and videos are available at the Iowa State University Extension online store and to seven other Extension online stores who are partners with this project. Efforts to sustain or increase communication with key external target audiences in Y5 included: Ongoing blogposts made bi-weekly on current topics through partnership with U2U. Ongoing Twitter messaging made several times/week. Target audience was farmers and agricultural advisors. Ongoing YouTube channel where all the project videos for public viewing including new videos highlighting graduate student research. Distribution of our "Resilient Agriculture" magazine at conferences and workshops. This 48-page magazine contained 21 articles by our team members with 520 print copies distributed to-date and available electronically. A news release publicizing the team's special issue of the Journal of Soil and Water Conservation. Project research published in practitioner and farmer magazines including The Progressive Farmer and CSA (Crops, Soils Agronomy) News. The project has had a number of high profile outcomes and impacts making the work of the project visible. The print and media products from the Resilient Agriculture National Conference held August 5-7, 2014 in Ames, Iowa was repurposed in magazine articles, presentations, and other media. The 48-page color magazine published for the national conference with the farmer audience in mind highlighted project findings and was awarded an Extension Education Materials Award of Excellence from the American Society of Agronomy. A project-wide effort was the publication of key research in the Journal of Soil and Water Conservation (JSWC) November-December 2014 issue on Climate and Agriculture at http://www.jswconline.org/. Two years in the making, 14 of the 20 articles were authored all or in part by CSCAP researchers and graduate students. These articles netted more than 26,000 total accesses by users to-date including abstract views, PDF downloads. As a result of the success of the 2014 Special Issue, the Soil and Water Conservation Society invited CSCAP to develop a second Special Issue on Sustainability of Corn, based on our project recommendations, for submission in 2016 and publication in 2017. The team's publication guidelines for how research data and findings are published (including recognizing USDA funding sources) have been used extensively in the preparation, submission, and publication of project findings and shared widely with other USDA-NIFA projects who are just beginning multi-disciplinary work. The project has had broad scientific impacts with the development of standardized protocols for measuring C, N, and water in corn-based cropping systems. It has also built extensive partnerships with the 25x'25 Alliance, North American Climate Smart Agriculture, USDA U2U project, USDA Climate Hubs, NOAA-NIDIS, and USDA National Agricultural Library; impacts that ensure the project findings, publications and products are widely shared in scientific and non-scientific communities. The project has also established professional networks that will have future impacts on the development of new proposals, increased collaboration across-region and state, extension programming around climate, weather, and agriculture, and overall increased robustness in larger scale research and dissemination of findings. The legacy of the networks our 86 graduate students have developed is just beginning to be realized by the students themselves as they seek post-graduate careers, prepare manuscripts for publication, and explore applications of their science with extension and agricultural stakeholders. Team members have been purposeful in extending team findings and information out to farmers, crop consultants, extension personnel, scientific community, and other key stakeholders throughout the region and nationally. The team has presented the findings of the team to-date, to 97,919 individuals. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals? Nothing Reported

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? IMPACT: The US produces 41 percent of the world's corn; of which more than 60 percent is grown in the upper Midwest, known as the Corn Belt. An increasingly variable climate and increases in frequency and intensity of rainfall in the Corn Belt threaten crop production and degradation of soil and water resources. The Third National Climate Assessment projects continuing climate disruptions to agriculture over the next 25 years and calls for accelerated adaption and mitigation efforts to address negative impacts of climate change. This project conducted research and published science findings and increased distribution of science-based knowledge of 1) the efficacy of certain farm management practices to make corn-based cropping systems more resilient, and 2) factors that promote and factors that impede adoption of the practices. Research data, from the management practices being studied, were collected over 5 years from 35 field research sites throughout the project area and integrated with climate science data. The management practices were evaluated by multi-disciplinary teams of project researchers. The practices were: corn-soybean rotation, cereal rye cover crops within the corn-soybean rotation, extended an diverse crop rotations, organic corn cropping system, drainage water management, canopy nitrogen sensing, tillage management (no-till and conventional), and landscape position. In years Y1-Y5 we completed research experiments and gathered final year of data from the field including plant and soil samples, conducting laboratory analyses, and performing quality control of data for entry into the central database. Synthesis and modeling of primary and secondary data was done, with 154 papers reporting team findings in scientific outlets. Cross-disciplinary integration and knowledge exchanges of data and findings occurred, to address more complex human-natural system research questions resulting in 41 published papers meeting integration criteria of co-authored by two or more disciplines and institutions. Graduate education of 86 project students occurred, with several events designed to guide them into the next phases of their careers. The highlight of Y5 and Y6 team outcomes was the analysis and synthesis of project data which resulted in: 119 workgroup-based recommendations; 59 synthesized recommendations focused on issue of carbon, nitrogen, water, stakeholders, climate, and pests; and 17 highly integrated concepts. These findings and recommendations were published and distributed in 5 technical reports to extend scientific findings to extension educators, farmers, policymakers, agricultural sector, and science educators. The team leveraged substantial additional funding building on the CSCAP project science, infrastructure, and relationships. The $20,000,000 in support given by our original USDA-NIFA grant has now been more than doubled by additional grants and contracts awarded to project PIs. These grants are complementary funds pursued by PIs to enhance CSCAP research and extension efforts. An additional $15,734,231 of leveraged dollars were committed for Years 1-5, with another $9,924,592 in post project years, for a total of $25,658,823 in leveraged funding. Across all objectives, some of the major accomplishments included:Reviewed, analyzed and synthesized data across years to identify emerging management practices, weather conditions, and soil properties that appear to be particularly influential on greenhouse gas emissions, agronomic productivity, soil quality and health, pest pressures, and overall carbon, nitrogen, and water footprints of these cropping systems. Synthesis occurred within workgroups on a temporal and spatial scale that has (and will continue to) produced findings and recommendations of high impact for the scientific community; Data team completed field site quality review and preparation for deposition into the USDA National Agricultural Library for public access. Have curated metadata and facilitated the entry of one-off datasets/metadata. Completed development of data libraries to describe metadata, treatments, and measured data to ensure standard interpretation and understanding. Developed calibration practices necessary for model predictive robustness under current and future climate; future impact prediction robustness requires a wide range of calibration conditions. Connected landscape water transport and quality modeling efforts with socioeconomic data from the HUC6 hydrologic units. Continued economic modeling to examine implications of conservation practices on cost and necessary economic incentives to meet nutrient reduction goals across the upper Mississippi. Continued to develop life cycle assessment models using site data to evaluate management practices at all sites and to identify trade-offs across the range of life cycle impact categories. Continued to integrate climate model projections into the team's modeling in order to evaluate the impacts of management practices under future climate projections, with focus on mid-century (ca. 2050). The interview transcript database from in-depth interviews of 159 farmers was structured and coded thematically to evaluate farmer perspectives on project emphasis practices to complement farmer survey data analysis. Analyzed data from the Y2 random sample survey of 4,778 Corn Belt farmers from 22 HUC6 watersheds across 11 states including joint work with USDA Useful to Useable (U2U) project were used for four CSCAP graduate student dissertation chapters and publications. Conducted second assessment of 159 project farmers on i) agronomic practices on two of their fields to compare 2015 to their baseline 2012 practices, and ii) survey of farm practices and responses to changing climate conditions. Met with U2U scientists to develop content and structure of a technical report for the North Central Region LGU extension leadership that synthesizes the social science of the two projects and lessons learned from extension. The intention of this report is to guide more robust Extension climate and agriculture programming post USDA projects. Carried out series of locally adapted presentations to extend project information, most often focusing on cover crops, nitrogen timing, no-tillage, and soil health. Print and video products for agricultural stakeholders around soil and carbon, water, climate, extended rotations, and tillage posted to SustainableCorn.org website and online Extension stores at 7 universities. For an example, see https://store.extension.iastate.edu/Topic/Crops/Climate-and-Agriculture. 31 graduate students and post-doctoral associates developed posters and one-page research summaries and planned a two-day program in October 2015 to meet with USDA personnel, government leaders, elected officials and NGOs in Washington, DC to share their project research and learn about career opportunities in government post-graduation. Project graduate students were coached in preparing post-graduation resumes, communicating science via written and spoken means, and collaborating with internal and external partners to academia, and via a spring webinar series "Practical Tools and Information for Emerging Scientists" highlighting 7 speakers. Science and agricultural education teachers were engaged in learning opportunities to understand how land surfaces processes and cropping systems impact climate and are impacted by climate change using local and regional agriculture examples. Conducted three one-week Climate Education Camps for teachers at Lincoln University, South Dakota State University, and The Ohio State University. Knowledge about climate change science was promoted via NCSE CAMEL virtual site which targets secondary teachers; CSCAP materials were populated to CAMEL as a reference on agriculture and climate.

Progress 02/28/14 to 02/27/15

Outputs
Target Audience: The CSCAP team has six key audiences with each receiving attention and efforts for this reporting period: (1) all team members; (2) CSCAP graduate students; (3) affiliated undergraduate students; (4) agricultural stakeholders including farmers and the agribusiness industry; (5) citizen stakeholders including high school students; and (6) the scientific community. First, the team actively worked to develop individual team members through cross-training of others' disciplines, scientific discovery, and team science exercises that built transdisciplinary capacity. Second, the team is focused on uniquely training CSCAP graduate students to emerge from their programs with the ability to comprehend complex societal and environmental challenges from a multi-pronged cross disciplinary and stakeholder collaborative approach. Third, internship opportunities, mentoring, and employment within laboratories and field research experiments allow several inlets for undergraduate students to work alongside and learn from team scientists. Fourth, the team's extension educators are building relational networks and working to build knowledge of and adaptation to a changing climate among farmers and agribusiness stakeholders in their respective states. Fifth, the team has conducted non-formal learning events to educate and build capacity among high school teachers. Sixth, the team is working hard to discover new science and understanding behind the physical and social factors influencing the capacity for corn-based cropping systems to mitigate and adapt to a changing climate; these findings are communicated through societal presentations, refereed journals, and white papers. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided? In Years 1-3, we have had annual (internal) team meetings but this year we hosted a three-day national conference in Ames, IA, with our team members, farmers, and external partners in attendance for cross-learning and dialogue. Graduate students participated in a "Next Generation Scientist" dinner at the national conference along with the "Next Generation Farmers" in attendance to allow for mutual learning and network building. In addition, 4 times during the year, Objective based working sessions occurred in person to advance papers, outputs, and strategic plans. The groups included: cover crop working group, drainage water management working group, Obj. 3, and Obj. 5. All Objectives meet throughout the year virtually using web teleconferencing. The CSCAP team includes a diverse set of expertise and specialties across the faculty, postdoctoral researchers, topic-based specialists/technical staff, graduate students, and undergraduate students. The CSCAP team is also actively engaged in helping train students within STEM disciplines. To-date, a total of 103 undergraduate students, 83 graduate students, and 18 postdoctoral researchers are members of this team; this equates to a total of 2708 months for this cohort of next generation scientists involved with the CSCAP. Our team's current Y4 contingent includes 46 graduate students and 10 post-doctoral scientists. Over the past three and a half years, our team has included a total of 83 graduate students (30% minority and 46% women) and 18 post-doctoral scientists (72% minority and 17% women). Undergraduate interns (n=10) at Iowa State University and The Ohio State University were engaged in team research with their mentors and presenting their findings. Undergraduate research assistants (n=41) across CSCAP institutions were also involved in research such as in-field data collection and conducting of lab procedures. A total of 51 undergraduate students were involved in the CSCAP in Y4. Gabrielle Roesch-McNally, elected graduate student representative for Y4 and member of the Leadership Team, is working to connect graduate students to the opportunities within the CSCAP graduate student body and facilitate transdisciplinary engagement as possible. Graduate students continue to do outstanding work and are active, contributing members of the team as well as represent our team in professional meetings and USDA functions such as the Project Director meeting in Jan. 2014 where Andrea Basche (Iowa State University) and Lindsay Pease (The Ohio State University) attended and were part of the graduate student breakout and Gabrielle Roesch-McNally (Iowa State University) and Chris Eidson (The Ohio State University) were invited to attend the PINEMAP summer meeting and participate in the graduate student discussions. At our 2014 national conference, graduate student posters were part of a competition with the top 3 awarded for excellence: 1st: Maciej Kazula (University of Wisconsin), 2nd: Linda Geiger (Iowa State University), and 3rd: Lindsay (Kilpatrick) Pease (The Ohio State University). A cohort of our graduate students also authored a paper for the special issue of the JSWC highlighting what their experience has been in this project. Graduate students have been involved in the successful publication of 19 journal articles which they have authored/co-authored to-date. The Y4 web-based graduate spring seminar titled "The Science behind Climate Change" highlighted three external and three internal faculty members. The weekly average attendance was 20 graduate students and staff; participants rated the webinars highly. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest? The team has been productive again with a total of 59 refereed journals*, 5 project reports or promotional pieces*, 5 white papers*, 5 MS thesis*, 3 PhD dissertations*, 13 proposals*, 7 books or book chapter, 26 extension publications*, 152 conference presentations (92/152 entered into REEport)*, 149 extension presentations, 13 education webinars*, 3 education camps*, 4 websites*, 10 partnerships with external groups*, 23 blog entries*, 97 popular press pieces (such as Corn and Soybean Digest and Successful Farming)*, 28 University press*, 7 radio and TV spots*, 27 videos*, and 9 news releases*. Please note that output categories with an asterisk have been brought into the Outputs section of this REEport but due to system capability the remaining outputs could not be uploaded. These outputs are in addition to those already reported in previous reports for Years 1-3. The team website (www.sustainablecorn.org) has seen an increase in traffic; site usage statistics from Oct. 2013 through Sept. 2014 include 14,175 site visits (53% increase from last year), 7,161 unique visitors (74% increase), 36,602 page views (37% increase). The most visited pages include the AgriClimate Connection blog, field research, and farmer perspectives about agriculture and weather variability. Efforts to increase communications in Y4 with key external target audiences also include the following: Ongoing blogposts made weekly on current topics through partnership with U2U. A 48-page magazine was created containing 21 illustrated articles by our team members. It highlighted the science behind climate resilience strategies for corn-based cropping systems and featured some of the team's research findings to-date. A total of 320 print copies have been distributed to-date to farmers and crop advisors. The magazine continues to be available electronically on our public website. A video entitled, Views from the Field: Farmers on Changing Weather Patterns, was collaboratively created by the team's videography student intern and extension educators. It debuted at the conference and is available at youtube.com/sustainablecorn. News releases were sent out to highlight the statistical atlas by Obj. 4 and to tie the team's work in with nationally covered topics such as the release of the Third National Climate Assessment. The 2014 national conference for Corn Belt farmers, crop advisors and CSCAP team members was promoted via news releases to ~400 local and national farm press, team website, blog, Twitter, postcards, ag and crop newsletters at partner universities, and outreach to corn and soybean farmer organizations through our relationships and our co-host 25x'25 Alliance. The CSCAP project and the science of crop resilience were carried in popular press publications such as Wallace's Farmer, Successful Farming Magazine and the Farm Bureau Spokesman. All conference products are available at www.sustainablecorn.org, including the magazine, conference sessions on video, Sec. Vilsack's comments on video, and posters. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals? The Climate and Corn-based Cropping Systems Coordinated Agricultural Project (CSCAP) is entering Y5 with goals to: 1) complete sampling measurements at 35 field sites and enter all data (biophysical and social economic) into the database; 2) accelerate synthesis and modeling of primary and secondary data and publish findings in scientific outlets; 3) increase across-disciplinary integration and knowledge exchanges of data and findings to address more complex human-natural system research questions; 4) develop recommendations and extend scientific findings to extension educators, farmers, policymakers, agricultural sector, and science educators with whom the team is working; and, 5) complete the graduate education of 47 project students and guide them into the next phases of their careers. In this last year of the project, the team will work to ensure future science and outreach programming are poised to build on what the project has learned by strengthening existing while also building out new partnerships to leverage and transfer the work of the team such as standardized protocols, research and management databases, internal website, field experiments, and inter-transdisciplinary networks of value to future proposals and projects. Many Advisory Board members are highly engaged with the team and are working with the team to plan for sustaining the project legacy. Across-team Y5 integration goals are to: 1) accelerate synthesis and modeling of primary and secondary data and publish findings in scientific outlets; 2) increase across-disciplinary integration and knowledge exchanges of data and findings to address more complex human-natural system research questions; and, 3) develop recommendations and move scientific findings to applications for use by extension educators, farmers, policymakers, other groups in the agricultural sector, as well as science educators. To accomplish the Y5 project goals we will continue the successful processes from past years that are bearing fruit and push forward to complete collection of all primary data (biophysical and social economic) with intent to finalize the project database; intensify cross-disciplinary efforts to conduct primary and regional analyses, synthesis, and modeling; and publish the science of the team for scientific and non-scientific audiences. Y5 whole-team POW tasks are: a) Complete the project database. Objectives 1-4 tasked with collecting, cleaning and preparing project primary data for analysis will actively interface with the database team to assure all data are in the database by end of Y5; b) Identify point persons for Objectives and field treatment workgroups to accelerate integration of disciplinary knowledge, theories, data and findings within Objectives and across the team so as to push multi-disciplinary integration and to facilitate across team knowledge exchanges; c) Strengthen integration by utilizing whole team monthly/bimonthly meetings to present preliminary findings and plans for writing papers, to identify integration and cross-cutting themes, and to organize integrated synthesis-writing workgroups; d) Increase virtual and face-to-face time for integrated team clusters to accelerate exchange of theories, propose and test hypotheses, analyze and synthesize data, and publish science findings; e) Expand involvement of project extension educators into existing and new integrated team clusters to create more active feedback loops between research, extension, and education so that scientific findings have strong farmer applicability; f) Develop products for non-scientific audiences by communicating key scientific findings to extension and education so these science outputs become inputs that extension and education teams can use with their target audiences; g) Synthesize regional recommendations specific to experimental treatments (cover crops, drainage management, tillage, extended rotations, and N management, organic water use efficiency); h) Publish regional recommendations via methods that target extension educators, agricultural advisors and intermediaries, farm media, science teachers, and project website visitors; and, i) Develop workgroups and work closely with the CSCAP Advisory Board to explore mechanisms and partnerships to leverage and transfer the work of the team post-project (e.g., Midwest Climate Hub, North Central Region Experiment Station directors, NA Climate Smart Agriculture, industry-university-ARS consortia). The Y5 plan of work for Objectives 1 & 2 focuses on building upon prior years collaborative work within topic subgroups (cover crops, drainage water management, organic systems, tillage management, nitrogen management, extended rotations, and integrated pest management), the final year collection of field research data across the 35 CSCAP research network sites, transmittal of data into the central database, integration meetings with Objective 3-6 members, and preparation of regional publications synthesizing data across the CSCAP network. The Y5 plan of work for Obj. 3 includes ongoing synthesis and modeling of CSCAP data gathered during Y1-Y4, continued collaborative work among subgroups, improved functionality and support of the central database, and integrating socioeconomic and climate data into datasets for modeling and analysis. The Y5 plan of work for Obj. 4 centers on continued (1) analysis of the quantitative and qualitative data that were collected in Y1-Y3, and (2) dissemination of that information, especially through the CSCAP Obj. 5 extension network. The close partnership with USDA U2U (Useful to Useable) project will continue with analyses and publications from the Obj. 4 shared database. Analysis and reporting will lead to improved understanding of farmer perspectives on climate change and adaptive and mitigative action; dissemination of that information to inform the work of scientists, natural resource and agricultural professionals, and policy makers; strengthening the transdisciplinary linkages with other project Objectives; and, continuation of learning partnerships with extension educators and farmers in nine Corn Belt states. The Y5 plan of work for Obj. 5 includes continuing work with farmer groups, one-on-one discussions with farmers' about their production systems, state-specific field days and crop management meetings to convey science findings and recommendations to assist in establishing practices for adaptation to climate change and facilitated discussions on weather variability and agriculture. As part of the accelerated integration goal of Y5, extension educators have been asked to become more actively involved in output development themselves and to integrate with project work clusters to provide feedback to the development of regional recommendations to farmers and interpretation of findings for non-scientific audiences. The Y5 plan of work for Obj. 6 is shaped around five key areas: (1) translate the science on climate change and agriculture (from this project and others) into educational materials for targeted stakeholder groups, (2) awaken and inspire the next generations of scientists and agricultural professionals to "do" agricultural science, (3) synergize and catalyze impacts and accomplish more than the sum of outcomes from Objectives 1-5, (4) integrate and cycle educational outcomes generated by the respective Objectives back to transform the project, and (5) target the dissemination of the science, research, processes, results, and implications to priority audiences of the project: graduate students, undergraduate students, and high school science and agriculture teachers.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? There are a number of high profile outcomes and impacts from Y4 for the whole team as well as individual Objectives. The Resilient Agriculture National Conference held August 5-7, 2014, in Ames, IA, drew 189 people including producers, farm leaders and agricultural organizations and was streamed to 70 online attendees. This national conference showcased: 1) many project science findings to date; 2) engagement of project farmers in the applications of the science; 3) strong partnerships built with the 25x'25 Alliance and the USDA U2U project; and, 4) project team engagement with knowledge exchanges among disciplines and stakeholders to address weather and climate challenges associated with corn-based cropping system management. A 48-page color magazine was published for the national conference with the farmer audience in mind; it highlighted project findings and was awarded for excellence by the American Society of Agronomy. A project-wide effort was the publication of key research in the Journal of Soil and Water Conservation (JSWC) Nov.-Dec. 2014 issue on Climate and Agriculture at http://www.jswconline.org/. Two years in the making, 14 of the 20 articles were authored all or in part by CSCAP researchers and graduate students. Collaborative research clusters and subgroups have worked more effectively together in Y4 on a cross-disciplinary and regional basis to analyze data and increase development of joint publication as result of increased understanding of diverse disciplinary perspectives and stronger trust relationships. Members have increased their comfort in communicating across disciplines and actively exchanging knowledge and generating new ideas to guide hypothesis testing and interpretation of findings. One outcome from the training of students has been the publication of 19 journal articles they have authored/co-authored to-date. The systems science focus and cross-disciplinary opportunities to learn continues to attract talented young people into the team, and to agricultural-based sciences. At this time, all Year 4 milestones are completed, although some have shifted in terms of focus or scale as the team continues to build out in many areas well beyond these milestones. Further accomplishments are listed by Objective: Obj 1 & 2: Continuation of the team's research network of 35 sites that is being leveraged for additional funds and research beyond the original scope of CSCAP and is used to drive scientific and lay publications; Continued development of graduate student capacity in conducting field research and a knowledge of protocol methods and collection of data beyond their specific discipline; Working groups were formed, with many of them highly functioning and well prepared to undertake the synthesis and analysis of data across time and space; Greater appreciation for the modeling and synthesis ability of Obj 3 personnel based on working group discussions and products; Sharing of findings to the entire team to aid comprehension and knowledge of C, N, and water responses to the treatments being investigated; and Dissemination of research through papers in journals, presentations, and the media to build scientific knowledge of the capacity these treatments have for adaptation and mitigation. Obj 3: Interactions with the central database and data owners in use of primary data, interpretation, and co-authorship; Supporting and continuing to build consistency among Obj. 1 & 2 members in their familiarity and ease of data entry with an overall high level of comfort and ability attained. Data reviews summarizing data entered/missing for each subcontract were conducted and this further built the relationships between the Objectives; Continued development of graduate student capacity in data synthesis and modeling with connections to field research that go beyond their specific discipline; The Obj. 3 team has been building collaborations with other Objective teams as well as among the modeling teams. For example, SALUS and DAYCENT are being used in tandem with SALUS predicting impacts of climate variability on corn yield and these yield changes allowing for more accurate predictions of soil N2O emissions; Dissemination of research through papers in refereed journals, presentations, and the media to build scientific knowledge of the effectiveness of these treatments in providing climate adaptation and mitigation; and, Continuing to build partnerships beyond the CSCAP to connect with data sources and model developers. Obj 4: Publication of the "Farmer Perspectives on Agriculture and Weather Variability in the Corn Belt: A Statistical Atlas" presenting data from the survey of 4,778 farmers across 11 states and 22 HUC6 watersheds in tabular and map form. This major product of a dynamic partnership with the Purdue-led USDA grant "Useful to Usable" (U2U) and the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) was downloaded 11,399 times in 2014; Dissemination of findings to key stakeholders and policy makers with several presentations to USDA administrators in the OSEC, NRCS, ARS, and FSA offices; these helped to guide language used by the Secretary of Agriculture in discussing climate change and framing the newly developing Climate Hubs. The scientific process and methods used in the survey have informed other farmer surveys throughout the US; Establishment of transdisciplinary research and extension partnerships across the CSCAP Objectives and incorporation of farmer survey data and in-person interview qualitative data to guide and interpret Obj 3 watershed modeling efforts; and Increased capacity among extension educators to translate climate and agriculture science to farmers by focusing on key adaptive strategies and concerns revealed through survey and interviews. Obj 5: Extension educators in all CSCAP states incorporated climate and agriculture presentations, information, and discussions into their existing extension programming efforts and reached over 7000 farmers, crop consultants, and other extension educators, Several extension educators have been able to step in to state-based information needs because of their knowledge through and experience with the CSCAP, Garnering widespread support in the team's efforts to programmatically strengthen the Land Grant University's focus on climate education for agriculture represents a significant shift relative to past efforts. Educators in IN and MI have conducted extension in-service this past year to address this need, and Partnership with the U2U project continued with promotion of U2U tools facilitated by CSCAP extension educators in extension presentations, newsletters, one-on-one conversations, and at the national conference. Obj 6: Graduate student involvement in research, extension and education efforts of the team are helping to shape them into the next generation of climate and agricultural scientists and educators. Currently, we have 47 graduate students. Many new graduate students recently joined the team and are being trained by individual PD's. Graduate students are highly engaged in team activities and presenting their work to external audiences. There was high student participation at the national conference with 71% of the team posters presented by graduate students. Students also are actively attending and presenting at professional society meetings. The web-based graduate seminar titled "The Science behind Climate Change" provided an opportunity for the students to learn about various sciences as they relate to climate change. CSCAP climate camps for science and agriculture teachers were hosted in IA, MN, and OH. The appointment of our third graduate student representative to the Leadership Team continues two-way communication between the graduate students and the leadership team.

Progress 02/28/13 to 02/27/14

Outputs
Target Audience: The CSCAP team has six key audiences with each receiving attention and efforts for this reporting period: (1) all team members; (2) CSCAP graduate students; (3) affiliated undergraduate students; (4) agricultural stakeholders including farmers and the agribusiness industry; (5) citizen stakeholders including high school students; and (6) the scientific community. First, the team actively worked to develop individual team members through cross-training of others’ disciplines, scientific discovery, and team science exercises that built transdisciplinary capacity. Second, the team is focused on uniquely training CSCAP graduate students to emerge from their programs with the ability to comprehend complex societal and environmental challenges from a multi-pronged cross disciplinary and stakeholder collaborative approach. Third, internship opportunities, mentoring, and employment within laboratories and field research experiments allow several inlets for undergraduate students to work alongside and learn from team scientists. Fourth, the team’s extension educators are building relational networks and working to build knowledge of and adaptation to a changing climate among farmers and agribusiness stakeholders in their respective states. Fifth, the team has conducted non-formal learning events to educate high school students. Sixth, the team is working hard to discover new science and understanding behind the physical and social factors influencing the capacity for corn-based cropping systems to mitigate and adapt to a changing climate; these findings are communicated through societal presentations, refereed journals, and white papers. Changes/Problems: Two team evaluations were conducted in Y3 of leadership and advisory members using interview methodology in Feb 2013 and of the entire team during mid-term (July 2013) using a web-based survey tool. The first evaluation provided outside perspective on team progress and dynamics with six recommendations that were considered and implemented by the leadership team. Two of the six recommendations were regarding the IPM and education (Obj 6) teams and the need to increase focus and integration; both teams held strategic meetings with the IPM team developing a proposal and receiving funding by the United Soybean Board and the education team developing a new work plan. Team milestones for Year 3 (as submitted in last year’s POW) will be met except for Objective 6 due to the new work plan. Therefore, summer internships, teacher training, and curriculum development at OSU were not completed. What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided? The team met at Purdue University during the last week of July for an intensive two-day annual meeting with 110 participants including advisory board and special guests. Significant time was allotted to presentations of preliminary findings from Obj 1-5, table discussions about connections between the team’s five platforms (carbon, nitrogen, water, systems, and stakeholders), Objective work time, and field excursions. The team has grown substantially and the various activities and presentations sparked a lot of excitement and discussion with ideas of how to further integrate areas within our team. Graduate students participated in a breakout session and separate dinner at the Y3 annual meeting and initiated a dialogue about the graduate roadmap and graduate seminar. The CSCAP team is actively engaged in helping train students within STEM disciplines. In Y3, we initiated a STEM reporting form for all undergraduates, graduate students, and post-doctoral researchers to complete so that we are tracking this in real-time. We hire talented individuals who represent an array of backgrounds that contribute to the strength of the team. Our team’s current contingent includes 36 graduate students and 12 post-doctoral scientists. Over the past two-and-a-half years, our team has included a total of 51 graduate students (25% minority and 39% women) and 14 post-doctoral scientists (65% minority and 15% women). Undergraduate interns at Iowa State University were engaged in team research with their mentors and reported their findings through poster presentations. A graduate coordinator was hired to promote the internship program (Science with Practice) among students and scientists. Lindsay Kilpatrick, elected graduate student representative for Y3 and member of the Leadership Team, is working to connect graduate students to the opportunities within the CSCAP graduate student roadmap (described in detail in 2012 USDA report) and facilitate transdisciplinary engagement as possible. Graduate students continue to do outstanding work and are active, contributing members. At our annual meeting, graduate student posters were part of a competition with excellence awards to Andrea Basche (Iowa State University), Ao Li (University of Wisconsin), Maciek Kazula (University of Wisconsin) and Jenette Ashtekar (Purdue University). The Y3 web-based graduate seminar “Professional Development for Emerging Scientists in Agriculture and Climate” featured scientists and leaders who provided first-hand experience of working within grand challenge areas related to natural resources and the necessary skillsets. Students participated in weekly web-based discussions related to climate change and agriculture. A total of 46 individuals participated in the six webinars with a weekly average attendance of 24 encompassing graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, and staff; participants rated the webinars highly. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest? The team has been productive in Y3 with a total of 31 refereed journals, 118 conference presentations, 71 extension presentations, 27 press releases or news items, 24 white papers, 7 videos, 91 extension publications, 10 proposals, 4 books or book chapter, 11 websites or blog post, 4 radio/tv spots, 15 partnerships with external groups, and 5 project promotional pieces. These are in addition to materials already cited in previous reports for Y1 and Y2. Not all team products were loaded into the PRODUCTS database due to system errors; those not brought in are primarily extension presentations and some white papers. Team members often provide expert opinion and recommendations to government agencies as well as external partners; to-date, we know of at least 15 external relationships with our team and expect the number to be higher in reality. For example, this year members responded to a need by NOAA and USDA that resulted in soil moisture monitoring being included in a memorandum of understanding. The external website was redesigned and populated with resources to enhance its usefulness to our primary audience of Corn Belt farmers. A blog was also launched, in partnership with U2U, AgriClimate Connection, with team scientists and extension specialists authoring content. The redesigned website and new blog were promoted and picked up by University and industry press. Additional external communication efforts in Y3 include displaying large metal signage at CSCAP research sites and smaller signs (with QR codes) for participating farmers, and training the team in creating videos for use on the website. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals? The team is entering Y4 with goals to deepen the synthesis and integration of sciences, extension, and education using a transdisciplinary approach which was strengthened in Y3. The team’s five thematic platforms (carbon, nitrogen, water, systems, and stakeholders) were launched as the framework for all research, extension, and education efforts in Y3 and will be continued in Y4. Utilizing the standardized protocols developed in Y1& Y2, we now have two to three years of field data from our network of 35 sites that are ready for analysis in Y4. Analyses will center on the suite of crop management practices studied in our field trials (no-tillage, cover crops integrated into corn-soybean systems, extended crop rotations, drainage water management, nitrogen sensing, organic system water use, and landscape position) and utilize a variety of modeling techniques that integrate the coupled natural and human systems with which we are working. Two-hundred in-depth interviews with farmers were completed in Y3. Analyses of social and economic data from the farmer survey and interviews will support Y4 multi-disciplinary/multi-objective work clusters to test integrated research questions and hypotheses and contribute to iterative information exchanges among scientists, extension educators, farmers, and science teachers regarding the strengths and weaknesses of varying management practices and farmer willingness and capacities to adopt them. Concurrently, in Y4, primary data as well as secondary data sources (such as weather) will continue to be archived in a central database and used in conjunction with baseline data from Y1 and Y2. New external funding from the United Soybean Board will expand our agronomic data base to include more measures of the soybean portion of the corn-soybean rotation and will be particularly valuable in further informing what is known about both phases of the rotation system. To accomplish the next critical steps the team will work within and across Objective teams to intensify efforts to invest in cross-disciplinary and cross-Objective dialogues and work. Specific POW's are listed here for the whole-team, cross-cutting, and Objective-specific. Y4 whole-team POW tasks are: Increase effective communication within and across the team to continue to develop better understandings of each other’s science and find improved ways to operationalize what we are learning. Increase effective communication to our external target audiences, farmers and science teachers, about what we are learning. Begin to answer research questions that reflect the complexity of corn-based cropping systems under changing climate conditions through synthesis and integration of the team’s multi-disciplinary knowledge addressing C, N, water, GHG, pest pressures, farmer perceptions and capacities to adapt and mitigate to changing climate conditions. Increase the blocks of face-to-face time of team clusters around our five platforms (C, N, water, systems, and stakeholders) to propose theories, analyze data, test hypotheses, publish science findings, and develop and test applications. Increase integration of project functions (research, extension, education) through expanded involvement in existing and new team clusters in ways that increase feedback loops and product development. Plan and hold a national conference in 2014 (“Resilient Agriculture: Adapting to Climate Change” to share the findings of the project to-date via an interactive forum with US farmer leaders and the CSCAP team. Publish preliminary scientific findings including working closely with Journal of Soil and Water Conservation editors to produce the 2014 special issue (Nov-Dec) on Climate and Agriculture consisting of peer reviewed and invited papers highlighting agricultural systems research. Cross-cutting activities and outputs among Objectives are: The field research (Obj 2) and modeling/synthesis (Obj 3) teams have several efforts that include multi-disciplinary collaboration to address and appropriately explain findings and extrapolate using models. Preliminary analyses conducted to-date show unique regional differences due to soil type, environment, and management practices. In Y4, the teams will work to better parameterize the expected mitigative and adaptive potential of these practices and the conditions impacting their relative performance. The social-economic research (Obj 4) has established a number of cross-objective synthesis and integration efforts that include theory development, analyses and writing partnerships that will develop academic and lay publications in support of extension and education and ground-truthing research findings with project farmers through listening sessions. The extension team (Obj 5) works closely with the social-economic Obj 4 team in equipping extension educators to better understand farmer audiences so as to provide educational interventions that support farmers in learning about and experimenting with a variety of adaptive strategies in response to a changing climate. The education team (Obj 6) will collaborate with Obj 1 & 2 scientists to create hands-on exercises that are field or laboratory based for teacher workshops in the summer. As a team, the sustainablecorn.org website is co-sponsoring a blog, “AgriClimate Connection” with the USDA-NIFA funded U2U team. The Y4 plan of work for Obj 1&2 includes increased collaborative work within topic subgroups, ongoing collection and analysis of field research data across the CSCAP research network sites, transmittal of data into the central database, integration meetings with Objective 3 members, and regional publications synthesizing data across the CSCAP network. The Y3 plan of work for Obj 3 includes substantial synthesis and modeling of CSCAP data gathered during Y1-Y3, as well as data from associated projects; continued collaborative work among subgroups; improved functionality and support of the central database, and integrating socioeconomic and climate data into datasets for modeling and analysis. The Y4 plan of work for Obj 4 centers on (1) analysis of the quantitative and qualitative data that were collected in Years 1-3, and (2) dissemination of that information, especially through the CSCAP Objective 5 extension network. Analysis and reporting will lead to improved understanding of farmer perspectives on climate change and adaptive and mitigative action; dissemination of that information to inform the work of scientists, natural resource and agricultural professionals, and policy makers; strengthening the transdisciplinary linkages with other project Objectives; and, continuation of learning partnerships with extension educators and farmers in nine Corn Belt states. The Y4 plan of work for Obj 5 includes further development of farmer groups to gather research data for Obj 4, one-on-one analysis of farmers’ production systems to assist in establishing practices that will adapt to and mitigate climate change, and facilitated discussions on weather variability and agriculture. The Y4 plan of work for Obj 6 is shaped around five key areas: (1) translate the science on climate change and agriculture into educational materials for targeted stakeholder groups, (2) inspire the next generations of scientists and agricultural professionals to “do” agricultural science, (3) synergize and catalyze impacts and accomplish more than the sum of outcomes from Obj 1-5, (4) integrate and cycle educational outcomes generated by the respective Objectives back to transform the project, and (5) target the dissemination of the science, research, processes, results, and implications to priority audiences of the project: graduate students, undergraduate students, and high school science and agriculture teachers.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? The team has increased capacity to synthesize and integrate across disciplines and continue the momentum building from Years 1 & 2 in which a strong foundation was laid by placing high value on understanding one another and working hard to be knowledgeable regarding other disciplines. This has taken and continues to take significant time but the rewards are starting to become evident through high quality and quantity outputs, training of undergraduate and graduate students, and colleagues who enjoy working with one another and collaborating on innovative research questions. The team continues to function largely as a virtual community with limited in-person meetings; this necessitates that members self-organize and are individually driven to succeed and meet or exceed expectations. Overall, during Y3, members within Obj 1-4 made substantial progress as they began working together to synthesize Y1 and Y2 data, both biophysical and socioeconomic. This effort required an increase in meeting frequency, content discussions, and peer-to-peer responsibilities and expectations. The team has made good progress toward Y3 milestones, with leadership determined in keeping members focused and on track. Further accomplishments are listed by Objective for clarity: Obj 1 & 2: Continuation of a research network with 35 sites that is being leveraged for additional funds and research beyond the original scope of CSCAP and is used to drive scientific and lay publications, Further discussion of nuances related to protocol carryout with gaps or errors addressed at a minimal number of sites. This occurred prior to the Y3 field season beginning and thus, ensured Y3 detailed measurements were nearly error-free in terms of methodology, Continued development of graduate student capacity in conducting field research and a knowledge of protocol methods beyond their specific discipline, Familiarity with new techniques, such as photoacoustic spectroscopy, that enable real-time data collection versus traditional methods, Greater appreciation for the modeling and synthesis ability of Obj 3 personnel based on working group discussions and products, Sharing of preliminary findings to the entire team to aid comprehension and knowledge of C, N, and water responses to the treatments being investigated to allow work amongst Obj 3-6 to continue forward, avoiding an information bottleneck, and Dissemination of research through articles in international journals, presentations, and the media to build scientific knowledge of the capacity these treatments having for adaptation and mitigation. Obj 3: Interactions with the central database and data owners to ensure proper understanding and use of the primary data and assessment of data quality, Calibrations of biophysical models based on interactions with both internal and external partners and model testing performed using Y1-Y2 data, Supporting Obj 1 & 2 members in data entry and in completing necessary edits to ensure a high quality database exists for team use, Continued development of graduate student capacity in data synthesis and modeling with connections to field research that go beyond their specific discipline, Sharing of preliminary modeling and synthesis of Y1 and Y2 data to the entire team to aid comprehension and knowledge of system and landscape responses to treatments being investigated, Producing assessments of accuracy and realism of climate simulations and climate-change projections relevant to the project, Dissemination of research through articles in international journals, presentations, and the media to build scientific knowledge of the effectiveness of these treatments in providing climate adaptation and mitigation, and, Continuing to build partnerships beyond the CSCAP to connect with data sources and model developers. Obj 4: Establishment of a strong research and outreach partnership with the USDA funded “Useful to Usable” (U2U) and the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), which has led to jointly-authored research publications, Continued development of transdisciplinary research and extension partnerships across the CSCAP objectives, Improved extension educator capacity to engage farmers about adaptive and mitigative management options through intensive interaction with farmers and researchers on these issues, and Dissemination of survey results through articles in journals, presentations, and media reports leading to improved knowledge of farmer beliefs about climate change, risk perceptions, and support for adaptive and mitigative actions among key stakeholders and the general public. Obj 5: Extension educators in 7 of the 8 CSCAP states (SD, MO, WI, IN, MI, MN and IA) incorporated climate and agriculture presentations, information, and discussions into their existing extension programming efforts and reached over 500 farmers, crop consultants, and other extension educators, Cover crop implementation has been gaining momentum among state and federal agencies in many project states. Several extension educators have been able to lend expertise in these programs and encourage use of cover crops as a practice that will allow farmers to be better prepared for changing weather conditions, Throughout the start-up phase of the project, there has been considerable extension educator skepticism of climate science and climate change’s effects to agriculture. The leadership has encouraged questions and knows scientists and educators are learning together with a goal of encouraging open-minded dialogues regarding what is known, what is not known, certainty and uncertainty, and perceptions of risk, Garnering widespread support in the team’s efforts to programmatically strengthen the Land Grant University’s focus on climate education within agriculture represents a significant shift relative to past efforts. This programming emphasis is expected to grow in the future with the CSCAP uniquely able to lead and serve as an example. The team focuses their messaging on the potential risks associated with weather fluctuation and crop production risk management strategies rather than “big picture” climate issues, and Partnership with the U2U project continued with the presentation of the beta versions of two decision support tools in which the educators participated in a guided review of the tools and provided feedback to the U2U project team. This direct link with U2U helps ensure farmer decision tools are properly vetted as well as incorporated into Extension plans of work associated with row crops and climate science. Obj 6: Graduate student involvement in research, extension and education efforts of the team are helping to shape them into the next generation of climate and agricultural scientists and educators. A significant turn-over of students occurred in Y3 due to graduation and turnover will continue now at a heightened level until the end of the project; PIs continue to recruit and train up new students. The graduate student cohort has contributed significantly to building their own identity and connectivity, often being a resource for one another. High student participation within the annual meeting poster symposium as well as professional society meetings, where attendees engage and ask questions of their work. The web-based graduate seminar titled “Professional Development for Emerging Scientists in Agriculture and Climate” highlighted six advisory board members or professionals as an opportunity for the graduate students to learn from experienced scientists and leaders who described their work within the agriculture and climate sectors, the type of skillsets needed, and current gaps and emerging needs. The appointment of our second graduate student representative to the Leadership Team continues two-way communication between the graduate students and the leadership team to ensure an environment conducive to student learning and growth.

Outputs
OUTPUTS: One in-person project-wide annual meeting occurred along with ~95 conference calls including the whole team, leadership team, and objective-specific working groups. The expansion of the team website along with circulation of promotional materials has increased awareness and use of information by partner institutions, organizations, and stakeholders. Members conducted the second year of field research using the team's standardized methodologies for measuring soil, water, plant, and ecosystem properties. A few additional research sites in MN and OH were added to the expansive field network (total 35 sites). Following closure of the USDA-ARS facility in Coshocton, OH, an agreement was developed and financial support leveraged to continue research. The team's centralized database has undergone construction and implementation in Y2; members entered carbon, nitrogen, and water research data. Researchers began collecting, enhancing and combining process models, historical data, and climate projections with data from field trials to calibrate biophysical models at field, farm, and landscape scale. Researchers have harmonized all published life cycle inventories of U.S. corn, and populated the LCA model structure with preliminary data. The social-economic team collaborated with the U2U survey team and NASS to produce an innovative survey research design, sampling approach, questionnaire, and database on 4,778 farmers. Twenty extension educators were trained in the methodology of conducting interviews and given facilitation materials. Extension educators have 92 farmer members for their state-based groups and a baseline assessment of their attitudes, beliefs and practices related to climate and conservation practices. A series of statewide and within-state regional publications, 81 in total, featuring climate data were completed for use among farmer stakeholders and interaction with a NOAA multi-agency effort on the National Climate Assessment. The graduate student cohort was strengthened through a graduate student roadmap, two graduate seminars on the science of climate change and professional development, and a special breakout at the annual meeting. The undergraduate internship and mentoring program began with 35 students working with faculty and staff mentors in research projects. Two summer climate camps occurred with 29 individuals including teachers and high school, undergraduate, and graduate students participating. The CSCAP team leveraged an impressive amount of additional funding to address gaps or expansion opportunities. In Y1, the team leveraged $730,000 and in Y2, the team leveraged $1.02 million; total to-date is more than $1.7 million. Specifically in Y2, funds were received from institutional support ($550,000); $183,315 by the United Soybean Board to address integrated pest management research needs; $95,000 by the Biological Agricultural Partners to support organic-focused research; and $192,866 by the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship. PARTICIPANTS: The CSCAP team includes over 140 members comprised of faculty, post-doctoral researchers, graduate students, extension educators, and staff. The team includes a diverse set of expertise and specialties across the principal investigators (n=41), post-doctoral researchers (n=8), topic-based specialists/technical staff (n=27), extension educators (n=20), and graduate students (n=36). An additional 12 PI's were brought on to the team through leveraged funding from United Soybean Board for an expansion of the IPM research component. Team members are also working with and mentoring undergraduate students on an on-going basis through research internships, summer camps, and employment opportunities; 35 undergraduate students have been affiliated with the team to-date. A complete team roster and specific roles is not included here due to space but can be found in the team's Year 3 continuation proposal submitted to USDA-NIFA in September 2012. Because of the stakeholder involvement and the high level of technical expertise required for the project, an external advisory board met twice with the team in Year 2 as well as on-going interactions. This board consists of 19 members with broad managerial, producer and scientific expertise on GHGs, climate modeling, physical modeling, analytical chemistry and carbon sequestration. The board provides high-level advice and feedback while also serving as a network into important stakeholder groups. Team members have built collaborations and partnerships with outside researchers and groups. First, the CSCAP is connecting with other USDA-funded climate-based projects for networking and collaborations. The directors and managers of the three USDA-funded CAP projects (wheat, pine, and corn) regularly collaborate and discuss ways to build capacity and learn from one another. The social-economic component of the CSCAP partnered with USDA-funded 'Useful to Usable' (U2U) project based at Purdue University in pooling resources and expertise for a survey of Midwest farmers. The Objective 3 team includes unfunded collaborators, such as a parameter estimation expert from the USGS (Dr. Michael Fienen), a nitrous oxide expert from the ARS (Dr. Tim Parkin), and members of the soil carbon modeling community (Dr. Keith Paustian), whose knowledge and practice have been impacted through their collaboration with the team. Overall, team members have had impacts on members of industry and nongovernmental organizations who have benefited through accessing the growing knowledge base of the team. For example, an established CSCAP research experiment in Iowa was used for the development of Iowa's Nutrient Reduction Strategy. Also, the team has had a series of in-depth discussions and exchanges of knowledge with Mr. John Kadyszewski, Director of the American Carbon Registry (ACR). The project has also provided data and interpretation to industrial analysts who are seeking to better understand the life cycle impacts of corn production in the U.S. TARGET AUDIENCES: The CSCAP team has six key audiences in terms of development, training, and education; each has received attention and efforts from the team for this reporting period: (1) all team members; (2) CSCAP graduate students; (3) affiliated undergraduate students; (4) agricultural stakeholders including farmers and the agribusiness industry; (5) citizen stakeholders including high school students and teachers; and (6) the scientific community. First, the team actively worked to develop individual team members through cross-training of others' disciplines, scientific discovery, and team science exercises that built transdisciplinary capacity. Second, the team is focused on uniquely training CSCAP graduate students to emerge from their programs with the ability to comprehend complex societal and environmental challenges from a multi-pronged cross disciplinary and stakeholder collaborative approach. Third, internship opportunities, mentoring, and employment within laboratories and field research experiments allow several inlets for undergraduate students to work alongside and learn from team scientists. Fourth, the team's extension educators are building relational networks and working to build knowledge of and adaptation to a changing climate among farmers and agribusiness stakeholders in their respective states. Fifth, the team has conducted non-formal learning events to educate high school students and teachers; also the external website is a communication tool to the general public. Sixth, the team is working hard to discover new science and understanding behind the physical and social factors influencing the capacity for corn-based cropping systems to mitigate and adapt to a changing climate; these findings are communicated through societal presentations, refereed journals, and white papers. The team has been highly proficient in the first two years with a total of 27 refereed journals, 129 conference presentations, 40 extension presentations, 21 press releases or news items, 23 white papers, 27 videos, 6 extension publications, 17 educational camp presentations, 10 proposals, 1 survey, 2 books or book chapter, 2 websites, 2 radio spots, 7 partnerships with external groups, and 9 project promotional pieces. These various publications are provided in-detail within the team's Year 3 continuation proposal submitted to USDA-NIFA in September 2012. PROJECT MODIFICATIONS: Nothing significant to report during this reporting period.

Impacts
The CSCAP team has increased capacity to connect multi-disciplinary knowledge and to begin understanding the value and explore applications of linking multi-disciplinary science to the practice of science in order to become a transdisciplinary team. A shift in focus for some PIs, to apply their skills to climate adaptation and mitigation, has opened new questions, potential partners, and provides a way to attract young people into agricultural sciences. The team developed a comprehensive research directive which provides the foundational disciplinary and multidisciplinary research questions and hypotheses upon which the team is developing additional transdisciplinary questions and hypotheses for future years. The standardized protocols, developed in Y1, were reevaluated in Y2 to ensure consistent and uniform data sets were being collected. Researchers conducting field experiments are more aware of data needs by the modeling community and making measurements they would not typically collect to improve overall utility of data to this project and future work. Modeling and synthesis members determined goals of individual research units and strengths of respective models in addressing the impacts of corn production in multiple dimensions, but with particular emphasis on economics and the C, N and water footprints. Using iterative cross-training, members have built a set of shared goals and collaborative approaches to the research questions. Social-economic members have established strong survey research partnerships with the USDA Purdue University-led grant, 'Useful to Usable' (U2U), and the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), improved extension educator capacity to engage farmers about adaptive and mitigative management options through training on how to conduct in-depth interviews, analyzed preliminary data leading to improved knowledge of farmer beliefs and concerns about climate change, and initiated a relationship with the USDA 'Regional Approaches to Climate Change in Pacific Northwest Agriculture' CAP project. Extension members have collaborated to develop climate training materials and messages that appeal to farmer and stakeholder audiences, specifically focusing on the impact of climate on the water cycle. Identification of these topic-based messages ensure information is more positively received and implemented. The extension educators are becoming more confident in presenting climate information during winter agricultural public events due to training and interactions with team members. Education members have increased capacity among the graduate student cohort through two web-based seminar series: 'The Science of Climate Change' and 'Professional Development for Emerging Scientists in Agriculture and Climate.' The appointment of a graduate student to the Leadership Team provided two-way communication to ensure an environment conducive to growth for the cohort. A graduate 'roadmap' now provides a framework of experiences to increase graduate student capacity for transdisciplinary work.

Progress 03/01/11 to 02/28/12

Outputs
OUTPUTS: The project established a team of more than 130 researchers and developed project protocols in the first year. This occurred at two project wide annual conferences in February and November; and monthly whole team, leadership team and objective-specific conference calls. Team members acquired and calibrated greenhouse gas (GHG) measuring equipment for use at research sites. Researchers identified nearly 30 field sites for the project and measured a total of eighty variables during the season spanning soil, agronomic, greenhouse gas, integrated pest management, water quality and volume, and climatic data. Soil measurements include bulk density, organic carbon, total nitrogen, pH, cation exchange capacity, texture, fertility, water retention, moisture and GHG emission. The project leveraged external funds to expand the scope of pest abundance and diversity data research; nearly 3,000 samples were collected from sticky traps, pit fall traps, sweep nets, black light and speed scouting. Investigators installed and updated drain flow monitoring equipment and installed weather stations to measure precipitation, air temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation, and wind speed and direction. Modelers assembled current and archived data, including those related to climate, weather, tillage and corn, and also used past data to begin testing various models, including EPIC and DAYCENT. A committee developed the framework and built a central database to house research data from all sites allowing researchers to compare their results with those from other sites. Investigators initiated a detailed power analysis for assessing the number of replications and sub-samples needed at each site to detect statistically significant differences in soil carbon and GHG emissions. Investigators analyzed more than 1,200 farmer responses from climate-related questions in the 2011 Iowa Farm and Rural Life Poll. Investigators worked with the USDA funded Useful to Usable (U2U) project based at Purdue University to combine their polling efforts and develop a single survey for joint release in 2012. This partnership leverages external funds to reach about 19,000 Midwestern corn producers, a greater number than either project could survey with independent funds. CSCAP is connecting with other USDA funded climate-based projects for networking and collaborations. Because of the coordination and stakeholder involvement and the high level of technical expertise required for the project, an external advisory board was established. This board consists of 19 members with broad managerial, producer and scientific expertise on GHGs, climate modeling, physical modeling, analytical chemistry and carbon sequestration. The board provides high level, broad advice and serves as a network into important stakeholder groups. PARTICIPANTS: Nothing significant to report during this reporting period.

Impacts
This large, transdisciplinary project has process and outcome accomplishments in year one. A functional research network of 26 field and watershed level experiments was established across eight states, using pre-existing and new sites. Standardized protocols were developed on proper procedures and data collection of carbon, nitrogen, water, agronomic variables, GHG and pests in five key experiment designs: cover crops, extended rotations, tillage, N sensing and controlled drainage. Each protocol was evaluated at year one end with minor revisions and finalized for years two through five. A central database was developed to include consistent formats for primary data collected from the project, climate data and other secondary data. Nine photoacoustic spectrometers, PAS, for gathering in-field GHG emissions were calibrated using the national GRACEnet protocol. Integrated Pest Management co-PIs leveraged the project's research network and as a result received a $236,000 two year grant from the United Soybean Board to support and expand the projects pest research component. Power analysis using previous research data was initiated. The systems analysis and predictive modeling scientists worked with all research PIs to specify research questions and hypotheses to be tested throughout the five years of the project. A socioeconomic random sample mail survey of about 19,000 corn producers in 21 HUC6 watersheds was developed with another USDA climate project, U2U, and leveraged an additional $51,400 from Iowa NRCS, ISU Experiment Station and Purdue Agriculture. The structure for citing the team in peer review and other publications was created, modified and finalized with consensus. Extension administrators in nine states agreed to programmatically dedicate 20 extension educators to learn about the project and work with 200 producers on climate change and its implications to cultivated row crop systems. The project linked with the USDA Heartland Integrated Water Quality Initiative 2011 conference on water and climate to offer initial CSCAP training and orientation to extension educators. As a result, extension educators are preparing to work with farmers in their state. The project produced 81 draft region-specific climate publications which are being used to engage state climatologists with extension educators as an education tool for farmers. Team members agreed to utilize common technologies for the project including an internal Web site, which supports effective inter team management, communication, and acts as the interface to the central database allowing easy data upload and export. The team has begun to develop a transdisciplinary approach, thinking and acting beyond their primary disciplines to link with co PIs and graduate students. First year meetings were opportunities for investigators to connect with one another, grow as a team and exchange insights into how their disciplines intersect. A primary project goal is to train the next generation of scientists. Graduate students began their research with a primary investigator of the project and began networking with other students to experience the transdisciplinary nature of the project.
