Biography:

Physicist Karl A. Erb, who has served as Senior Science Advisor at NSF since 1993, became Head of the Office of Polar Programs on 2 November 1998. As part of the senior NSF management team, he gained considerable familiarity with the management of polar programs. His experience has included representing NSF in the National Science and Technology Council review of the U.S. Antarctic Program, that resulted in the 1996 White House affirmation of the importance of the program to the nation. He also coordinated preparations for the subsequent review by the U.S. Antarctic Program External Panel (known as the Augustine Panel after its chair, Norman Augustine). In addition, he has assisted in developing an agency-wide approach to supporting research in the Arctic. He is also the senior federal science official in the Federal Demonstration Partnership, as designated by the Assistant to the President for Science and Technology. More...
