Abstract
In this talk, we summarize how QCD evolution can be exploited to improve the treatment of transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution and fragmentation functions. The methods allow existing non-perturbative fits to be turned into fully evolved TMDs that are consistent with a complete TMDfactorization formalism over the full range of kT . We argue that evolution is essential to the predictive power of calculations that utilize TMD parton distribution and fragmentation functions, especially TMD observables that are sensitive to transverse spin.
