This form is intended to capture well-structured feedback from the SAON-ROADS Advisory Panel on documentation that has been submitted by groups to capture the results of Phase II of their Expert Panel work under the SAON-ROADS process. The purpose of the Phase II documentation is to establish a strong case - through benefit analysis - for focusing on specific Shared Arctic Variables in Phase III of the process, illustrating that the Guiding Principles of the ROADS process are being observed and that mechanisms are in place to continue to observe them through the process. More detail on what is expected from Expert Panels can be found in ROADS Guidance to Expert Panels.
The purpose of this formative evaluation is to convey recommendations back to the Expert Panel through 1) an assessment of their progress as it relates to the ROADS Guiding Principles and expectations of Phase II of the process and 2) to provide concrete suggestions to improve the results of Phase II work and 3) to assure readiness to proceed to Phase III of the SAON-ROADS process.
