GENEVA, September 18 – The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the UN body for assessing the science related to climate change, is calling for nominations of authors for the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).
Hundreds of experts around the world in the different areas volunteer their time and expertise to produce the reports of the IPCC. Author teams aim to reflect a range of scientific, technical and socio-economic views and backgrounds.
The IPCC includes three working groups: Working Group I assesses the physical science basis of climate change; Working Group II is responsible for impacts, adaptation and vulnerability; and Working Group III assesses the mitigation of climate change.
Experts working in Finland or Finnish experts can express their interest in IPCC A6 working process to secretary of National IPCC Work Group: Heikki Tuomenvirta, Ilmatieteen laitos, IPCCsihteeri [@] fmi.fi
