... In making its recommendations, the committee was guided by the following principles: •  o make transformational scientific progress, the Sun, Earth, and T heliosphere must be studied as a coupled system; •  o understand the coupled system requires that each subdis T cipline be able to make measurable advances in achieving its key scientific goals; and •  uccess across the entire field requires that the various elements S of solar and space physics research programs -- the enabling foundation comprising theory, modeling, data analysis, innovation, and education, as well as ground-based facilities and small-, medium-, and large-class space missions -- be deployed with careful attention to both the mix of assets and to the schedule (cadence) that optimizes their utility over time.
