Rolf Lehming, Thomas M. Smith, and Alan I. Rapoport directed the physical production of the volume which benefited from extensive contributions from SRS staff. The Division's senior staff and survey managers assured timely availability of data under often stringent deadlines: Richard J. Bennof, Joan S. Burrelli, Leslie J. Christovich, Mary J. Golladay, Susan T. Hill, John E.
Jankowski, Kelly H. Kang, Nirmala Kannankutty, Mary M. Machen, Ronald L. Meeks, Melissa F. Pollak, John Tsapogas, and Raymond M. Wolfe. Mary J. Frase and Ronald S. Fecso provided advice with statistical and data presentation issues. Deborah A. Collins, Vellamo Lahti, Rajinder Raut, Felicia Hairston, Terri Smith, and Martha M. James rendered logistical support. John R. Gawalt managed editorial, printing, and Web support, and Wayne K. Thomas oversaw the project's contractual aspects.
Members of the National Science Board's Science and Engineering Indicators Subcommittee, chaired by Richard M. Tapia, provided guidance and support throughout the preparation of this report. Mary F. Poats, Executive Secretary, ensured smooth
coordination with the Subcommittee. However, the report also benefited from the close involvement of all NSB members, from development of narrative outlines to intensive reviews. The Board members' generous contribution of time, effort, and expertise under often stringent schedules is gratefully acknowledged.
National Science Board staff under the direction of Marta Cehelsky offered needed assistance and advice: Daryl Chubin, Gerard R. Glaser, Jean Pomeroy, Catherine J. Hines, Janice E. Baker, and Annette M. Dreher. The other contributors and reviewers listed in Appendix A provided valuable comments and expertise.
Overall editing and coordination of the report was performed by Beverly Cook and associates of Aspen Systems Corporation. Eileen Kessler and the staff of OmniDigital Studio, Inc., provided desktop publishing and composition services. Mary J. Frase and John R. Gawalt produced special Information Cards, and John R. Gawalt was responsible for making this publication
available on the World Wide Web <www.nsf.gov/statistics/seind02/>. Web design, programming, and HTML coding were performed by De Vo, Bridget Tuthill, Marjorie Silverwand, Jennifer Nowak, Elise Manalang, and Jason Shaffer of Compuware Corporation.
NSF's Office of Legislative and Public Affairs (OLPA), under the guidance of Curtis Suplee, Director, provided media and Congressional liaison support for the report. Special thanks go to Mary E. Hanson and Bill Noxon for media support and David Stonner for Congressional relations support.
The Cover 
The cover image shows the path of a neutrino, as recorded by the Antarctic Muon and Neutrino Detector
Array (AMANDA), at the South Pole, supported by the National Science Foundation, the manager of the
US Antarctic Program. AMANDA was designed to detect and measure neutrinos produced in cosmic sources
within our galaxy and beyond, yielding important new information about cosmic objects, both poorly
understood or previously unknown. The detector consists of over 500 photomultipliers buried between
1,400 and 2,400 meters deep in the ice sheet covering the region of the South Pole in Antarctica.
