The document discusses the impacts of climate change on oceans and cryosphere (ice) as outlined in the IPCC's Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate (SROCC). It notes that sea level rise will continue beyond 2100 and could reach 1 meter by 2300 under low emissions scenarios but up to 5.4 meters under high emissions. Adaptation will be necessary to address sea level rise impacts, with low emissions giving the best chance of successful adaptation. The document emphasizes that every fraction of a degree of warming, every year of action or inaction, and every mitigation or adaptation action matters to address the threats of climate change on oceans, coasts, and low-lying islands.

Impacts and risks for global marine biodiversity and fisheries
Elvira Poloczanska - Risks to Ecosystems and Human Systems from Changes in the Ocean and Cryosphere
Findings from SRCCL
The document summarizes key findings from the IPCC Special Report on Climate Change, Desertification, Land Degradation, Sustainable Land Management, Food Security, and Greenhouse Gas Fluxes in Terrestrial Ecosystems. It involved over 100 authors from over 50 countries who assessed over 7,000 references and received over 28,000 comments. The report found that land is under growing human pressure but can also be part of climate change solutions. However, land cannot address climate change on its own. It identified high risks from land-related impacts with just 1.5°C of warming and severe risks by 3°C of warming. The Shared Socioeconomic Pathways framework outlines scenarios ranging from population decline and sustainable land use
Implementing Adaptation to SLR
This document summarizes various approaches to implementing adaptation to sea level rise. It discusses hard protection, sediment-based protection, ecosystem-based adaptation using corals and wetlands, coastal advance, coastal accommodation, and retreat. For each approach, it outlines their effectiveness, advantages, drawbacks, economic efficiency, and governance challenges in adapting to and mitigating sea level rise. The document emphasizes that sea level rise poses major risks to coastal cities and small islands, and that uncertainty increases regarding impacts beyond 2100 due to uncertainties around Antarctic ice sheet dynamics.
Water Systems and security
The document summarizes key findings from the IPCC's Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate. It finds that glaciers and snow cover are declining rapidly around the world, including in regions like Europe, Africa, South America and Asia. This is increasing hazards like floods and landslides. Peak water levels in glacier-fed rivers have already passed or will pass by mid-century in many areas. This will significantly impact downstream water supply for billions of people. Adaptation measures are needed to help communities adjust and ensure sustainable water resources in a warming world. Limiting warming to 1.5C compared to 2C could help reduce these risks.

This document summarizes key findings from the IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Land. It discusses growing human pressures on land from population growth and consumption. Climate change is exacerbating these pressures through increased heat waves, drought, wildfires and reduced crop yields. Agriculture, forestry and other land use account for 23% of greenhouse gas emissions. The report evaluates response options to tackle land degradation, desertification, food insecurity and emissions through sustainable land management and changes to food systems and risk management. Many response options have co-benefits but must be implemented at suitable scales with best practices to avoid negative impacts.

Sea-level rise and Extreme Sea Level Events
This document discusses projections for sea level rise and extreme sea level events from climate change. It notes that Antarctic ice sheet contributions to sea level rise were revised upwards in recent reports. Without sharp reductions in emissions, sea level rise may exceed 1 meter by 2100 and extreme sea level events could become at least 100 times more frequent at most coastal locations before 2100. The document also warns that many tropical islands and low-lying cities will face annual flood risks by 2050 under any emissions scenario without strong adaptation efforts, and sea levels could rise up to 5 meters by 2300 if emissions are not cut.

The document summarizes key information about Eastern Boundary Upwelling Systems (EBUS) and the impacts of climate change on these coupled human-natural systems. It notes that EBUS are highly productive ocean ecosystems that support fisheries, tourism, and agriculture. Observed changes include wind and upwelling intensification in most EBUS. Projected changes under climate change include further wind and upwelling changes, deoxygenation and acidification, varying impacts on primary production, and effects on fish biomass and fisheries. These changes threaten important ecosystem services and food security, especially for vulnerable communities with low adaptive capacities. The document calls for supporting sustainable management and reducing stresses to help reduce climate risks to EBUS and the
The Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate
The document summarizes key findings from the IPCC Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate. It finds that the ocean and cryosphere have absorbed much of the increased heat from climate change, with consequences including sea level rise, shrinking glaciers and ice sheets, and changes in marine life. These changes threaten coastal communities, water resources, and cultural heritage. Urgent action is needed to address these impacts and transition societies in a sustainable way. Limiting warming to 1.5C would help societies better adapt to inevitable changes.
Key findings of AR5 for the Carribean region
The document summarizes key findings from the IPCC's 5th Assessment Report regarding climate change impacts in the Caribbean region. It finds that surface temperatures have warmed 0.8 degrees Celsius since 1901 and are projected to increase up to 3 degrees by 2100 depending on emissions levels. Sea levels in the Caribbean have risen 2.7 mm per year and mean sea surface height has increased 12 cm from 1993-2014. These changes threaten coastal flooding and erosion, loss of coral reefs, and increased infectious diseases. Adaptation measures discussed include improving infrastructure, restoring forests and wetlands, and reducing disease vectors.
Amazonia
The document summarizes climate change impacts and deforestation effects on the Amazon region's water cycle. It notes the Amazon Basin's extraordinary biodiversity but also describes increasing droughts and floods in recent decades. Deforestation levels and air temperatures are also rising in southern Amazonia. Climate and land cover changes could significantly affect both regional and global water cycles. Modeling shows deforestation impacts local and regional hydroclimatic connectivity between the Amazon and Andes. Conserving and restoring terrestrial and aquatic systems, along with scientific innovation, education, and governance strengthening, are needed to support a sustainable Amazon region.
Sea Level Rise
Sea levels are rising due to global warming caused by human emissions of greenhouse gases. The two main causes of sea level rise are the thermal expansion of ocean water as it warms and the melting of land ice sheets and glaciers. Current estimates show sea levels rising 3.2 mm per year globally but faster in some areas, threatening coastal communities with problems like flooding and erosion. To mitigate further dangerous sea level rise, experts recommend reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050, though even that may only limit warming to 4-6 degrees Celsius by 2100.
IPCC Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate (SROCC)
The document provides an introduction to the IPCC Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate (SROCC). It notes that special reports address policy-relevant issues requiring input from multiple working groups. The SROCC will assess observed and projected changes to oceans and cryosphere and associated risks, impacts, and adaptation options. It will have 6 chapters covering high mountain areas, polar regions, sea level rise, marine ecosystems, extremes/abrupt changes, and links to the IPCC's Sixth Assessment working group. The report aims to inform climate policies and actions.
Climate Change - An African Perspective
This document discusses the impacts of climate change from an African perspective according to the IPCC special reports from 2018-2019. It notes that parts of Africa have already warmed over 1.5°C and are experiencing more frequent and intense climate extremes like drought and heavy rainfall. These changes are damaging ecosystems through biodiversity loss, desertification, and threats to habitats like oases, high mountains, and coral reefs. The document also outlines societal impacts like increased poverty and vulnerabilities for people living in drylands, coastlands, and cities in sub-Saharan Africa. Limiting warming to 1.5°C would significantly reduce these risks but require transitioning all parts of society including energy systems, land use, infrastructure,

IPCC Fourth Assessment Report - Climate Change: impacts and adaptation by Ms Lucka Kajfez Bogataj, Former IPCC WG II Vice-chair [PDF]
Impacts of Climate Change
The document summarizes impacts of climate change including rising global temperatures, sea levels, and shifts in ecosystems. Continued carbon emissions are expected to lead to more warming, melting of ice sheets and glaciers, and sea level rise of several meters over centuries. This poses risks to coastal cities and islands. Certain tipping points such as thawing permafrost and collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet could have irreversible consequences if crossed. Urgent action is needed to reduce carbon emissions according to the IPCC.
Small Island States
Small island states are highly vulnerable to climate change impacts according to the IPCC AR5 report. Coastal flooding from sea level rise and stronger storms threatens infrastructure, settlements and livelihoods in the Caribbean. Coral reefs are also at risk of decline or being lost entirely due to warming oceans and acidification. Adaptation measures discussed include preventing mosquito-borne diseases, using drought-tolerant crops, restoring coastal ecosystems, and improving building codes to withstand more intense tropical storms.
Sea level rise (final)
Sea levels are rising due to multiple factors related to climate change. Thermal expansion caused by warming oceans, melting glaciers and ice sheets, and land ice loss from Greenland and Antarctica are leading to higher sea levels. This poses risks like coastal flooding, erosion, habitat loss, and saline intrusion. Adaptation strategies include protecting coasts through barriers, accommodating the rise through elevated structures, retreating to safer areas, and attacking the problem through land reclamation. Reducing carbon emissions to mitigate further global warming is key to reducing future sea level increases.
Climate change: changes in the cryosphere
The document discusses changes occurring in the cryosphere (frozen parts of the Earth's surface) including polar ice sheets, glaciers, sea ice and permafrost. It provides details on factors contributing to melting and decline of ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica, such as rising air and ocean temperatures, increased surface meltwater, glacier acceleration and ice shelf instability. Graphs and maps show decreasing trends in Arctic sea ice extent, thickness and concentration over recent decades, as well as rising ice loss from both the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets.
Climate change: Changes in the hydrosphere
1) Oceans have absorbed over 90% of the excess heat from global warming since 1970, causing ocean temperatures and heat content to rise steadily. This increased heat will affect global climate patterns.
2) Measurements by multiple agencies show the ocean continues to warm both at the surface and at depth, with higher rates of warming at high latitudes and in the Southern Ocean. Warming oceans also lead to rising sea levels and ocean acidification.
3) Precipitation patterns are changing, with statistically significant increases at northern latitudes and decreases at southern latitudes, consistent with a warmer and moister atmosphere under climate change.
The effects of global warming on the marine
Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide trapping heat in the atmosphere. The oceans absorb much of this increased heat and carbon dioxide, leading to changes like rising temperatures, shifting currents, and acidification. These changes threaten marine life and ecosystems by disrupting food sources, forcing migrations, damaging coral reefs, and allowing invasive species to outcompete natives. Without action to address climate change, its impacts on the ocean environment will continue to intensify.
Session with Youth: The Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate
The document summarizes key findings from the IPCC Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate. It finds that ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are melting faster than in the 20th century and are now the dominant cause of rising sea levels. Sea level rise has accelerated and is projected to increase risks for coastal communities. While some adaptation is occurring, the most vulnerable populations have less capacity to respond. Timely and ambitious climate mitigation can significantly reduce future sea level rise and its impacts.
Sea level rise tam 2014-03
Sea levels are rising due to climate change caused by increased greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This is resulting from thermal expansion of oceans as well as melting of large ice masses like glaciers and ice sheets. The IPCC estimated in 2006 that sea levels could rise 40 cm by 2100 due to various contributions. However, more recent data shows Arctic and Greenland ice melting faster than predicted, indicating sea level rise may be closer to the higher end of IPCC estimates or even higher. Rising seas pose serious threats such as coastal flooding and erosion, wetland loss, and damage to coastal infrastructure and habitats. Low-lying coastal areas are especially at risk.

Climate change ,adaptation and mitigation in fisheries
The document discusses climate change impacts on fisheries and aquaculture. It notes that climate change affects these industries through ocean acidification, changes in sea temperatures and currents, and more extreme weather events. These changes impact fish populations and habitats, causing shifts in distribution and productivity. They also affect fishing and aquaculture operations through changes in costs, productivity and safety. The impacts vary regionally, with tropical areas expected to see larger declines in fish catch potential than temperate regions. Adaptation strategies are needed to help these industries adjust to the changes.
Sea Level Rise
The document discusses sea level rise and its causes and impacts. It provides facts about projected sea level rise of 1 meter by 2100, and that 10% of the world's population lives in low-lying coastal areas. It introduces a case study on Tuvalu to illustrate the social, environmental, and economic impacts of coastal flooding. Students are tasked to write a paragraph on the causes of sea level rise from information provided, and to note two facts about Tuvalu and one question after viewing a related video.
RISK p3-14 CLIMATE CHANGE ... Hansen et al predictions 2015 150814
James Hansen and many other scientists have been working on the matter of climate change for a long time. Climate change is very complicated, but the evidence is that we are facing change that has not been seen in MILLIONS of years. We are not facing a 100 year storm, but a disruption that happens only a few times in the life of the planet. This Hansen report should be a wake up call to decision makers. It further justifies the MDIA rethink of how we do metrics about all decision making and the accounting for risk.

Coastal flooding and erosion are also projected to significantly worsen due to sea level rise and more intense marine heatwaves. Other climate impacts addressed include increasing ocean acidification, changing ocean salinity patterns, and reduced dissolved oxygen levels. The author concludes by thanking the IPCC and providing contact information.
impactos del cambio climatico en ecosistemas costeros
Anthropogenically induced global climate change has profound implications for marine
ecosystems and the economic and social systems that depend upon them. The
relationship between temperature and individual performance is reasonably well
understood, and much climate-related research has focused on potential shifts in
distribution and abundance driven directly by temperature. However, recent work has
revealed that both abiotic changes and biological responses in the ocean will be
substantially more complex. For example, changes in ocean chemistry may be more
important than changes in temperature for the performance and survival of many
organisms. Ocean circulation, which drives larval transport, will also change, with
important consequences for population dynamics. Furthermore, climatic impacts on one
or a few leverage species may result in sweeping community-level changes. Finally,
synergistic effects between climate and other anthropogenic variables, particularly fishing
pressure, will likely exacerbate climate-induced changes. Efforts to manage and conserve
living marine systems in the face of climate change will require improvements to the
existing predictive framework. Key directions for future research include identifying key
demographic transitions that influence population dynamics, predicting changes in the
community-level impacts of ecologically dominant species, incorporating populations
ability to evolve (adapt), and understanding the scales over which climate will change and
living systems will respond.
Contemporary evidence of climate change
A detailed overview (for GCSE level) of the impacts of climate change - theory not the located issues - that follows later - made by Mr Isaac
310B Disertation
Sea level rise will significantly impact Dublin's coastal wetlands like Portmarnock Saltmarsh. Analysis of sea level data from Dublin tide station shows a correlation between rising sea levels and time, with sea levels rising more sharply from 1980-2010. Coastal habitats will be threatened by both rising seas and coastal squeezing as habitats have fewer places to naturally retreat inland due to development. While some reports acknowledge these issues, Ireland currently lacks concrete adaptation plans to protect vulnerable coastal ecosystems from sea level rise.
Sea level CO2
The document discusses the consequences of increasing carbon dioxide (CO2) levels and rising sea levels. It notes that global temperatures have risen 0.6°C over the past 150 years and are predicted to increase 1.5-5.8°C by 2100, and that sea levels have risen by about 120 meters in the last 20,000 years and 1-2 mm per year in the last century, with predictions of a 0.13-0.94 meter rise by 2100. Higher CO2 levels will also likely lead to changes in precipitation patterns and more intense rainfall, and have consequences for marine processes and organisms.
ÖNCEL AKADEMİ: INTRODUCTION TO GEOPHYSICS
The document discusses concepts in geophysics including:
1) Seismic refraction techniques for interpreting subsurface layers and determining their velocities from refraction arrival times.
2) An example problem analyzing a seismic shot record to determine the number of layers, their velocities, and thicknesses.
3) Continental rifting processes that thin the crust and can eventually lead to seafloor spreading and new ocean basin formation at divergent plate boundaries.
IPCC AR6 August 2021 report review
The IPCC report provides the following key points:
- Global warming has already reached 1.2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and further increases are inevitable due to past emissions.
- Most regions will see increases in hot temperature extremes, heavy precipitation events, and droughts.
- Sea level rise between 50cm to over 1 meter is expected by 2100, threatening coastal and island communities.
- Further warming will depend on future emissions but 4 degrees of warming by 2100 is possible without rapid emissions reductions.
One Ocean - Auckland Launch and Discussion
This document is a report on ocean health and safety from One Ocean. It includes an agenda with sections on context, findings, global warming and ocean warming, lines in the ocean, sustainable coastlines, and next steps. A summary is provided by James Tremlett from Papua New Guinea, who discusses the successful marine education program of the small NGO Mahonia Na Dari. He emphasizes the need for concrete conservation actions and vigilance regarding laws governing ocean activities, as Papua New Guinea will undergo the world's first industrial deep-sea mining operation. The section on global warming and ocean warming by Professor Tim Naish notes that warming oceans are causing sea level rise and changes around New Zealand, with uncertainty around Antarctic ice melt
Discussion on sea level rise in Puerto Rico
Sea level rise due to climate change has negatively impacted Puerto Rico's coastal areas. Coastal erosion, loss of beaches and coastal habitats have affected tourism and livelihoods. Sea level rise also increases the risk of saltwater intrusion and mortality of coastal forests. Low-lying islands are particularly threatened by complete inundation with even modest levels of sea level rise. To mitigate these impacts, Puerto Rico needs to implement adaptation measures such as coastal defenses and zone planning. More work is still needed to prepare the island for future sea level rise at both short and long terms. Puerto Rico faces challenges similar to other Caribbean islands due to their low-lying coastal geography.
Carbon Dioxide; What is Earth's Point of No Return?
- The Earth is rapidly transitioning to a new climate state driven by human-caused increases in greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide.
- Actions taken in the first half of the 21st century will determine the planet's climate for the next thousand years.
- If carbon dioxide levels rise too high, it could trigger large and irreversible changes to the climate system with severe environmental and economic consequences. Prudence suggests taking action to limit CO2 increases before reaching a "point of no return".
Sea Level Rise: Global and California data and projections
Sea levels are rising globally due to increasing temperatures driving thermal expansion of oceans and melting of land ice. Based on data from 1993-2010, global sea levels rose an average of 3.2 mm per year, and are projected by the IPCC to continue rising throughout the 21st century at an accelerated rate compared to 1971-2010. In California, indicators show sea levels rising along the coast, with state projections aligning with global projections of increasing sea level rise due to climate change throughout the current century.

Socio-ecological valuation of ecosystem services along the West Antarctic Pen...
The Palmer Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project is located along the West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), one of the most rapidly warming regions on the planet. Despite its remoteness the WAP supports a variety of social and economic activities, most notably in the fishing and tourism industries and in international scientific research. Because of the growing pressures imposed by these activities, the rapid rate of environmental change, relatively pristine nature of the environment, its trophic complexity, and rich scientific record, the WAP is an ideal place to explore the impact of climate change on marine and terrestrial ecosystems and the services and benefits they provide. Here we present a schema to conduct an initial assessment of WAP marine and terrestrial ecosystem services that will serve as a critical baseline for future studies, and that is broadly applicable to other LTER sites. We will combine social valuation and qualitative, expert-based modelling to identify relevant ecosystem services and to conduct an initial assessment and valuation of ecosystem service supply for the WAP region. The Palmer LTER team of investigators includes experts in topics ranging from physical oceanographic processes, to microbiology, to marine avian and mammal ecology. Through interviews and an online survey we will evaluate the views and perceptions of Antarctic ecosystem services and their changes among this group of experts. Our focus will be on biophysical ecosystem services, but we will include cultural ecosystem services and the impacts of changes on ecosystem functioning and ecosystem service supply in the expert elicitations. This qualitative, socio-ecological valuation will guide an expanded future assessment of WAP ecosystem services that include economic and socio-cultural realms of ecosystem service as perceived and valued by an expanded pool of experts and stakeholders.
Cal Academy Talk, March 9, 2017
1) Natural infrastructure like coral reefs can help sustain coastal populations by reducing risks from hazards. Coral reefs attenuate wave energy and storms surges, providing coastal protection.
2) Assessing the risk reduction and economic benefits of natural infrastructure requires quantifying hazards, exposure, damages with and without the ecosystem. For example, modeling showed reefs in Mexico reduced risk of 1-in-25 year losses by $23 million.
3) Restoration of degraded reefs can help regain their coastal protection functions. A pilot project in Mexico transplanted corals to stabilize shorelines and decrease erosion, showing restoration provides benefits within a few years.

Slide deck for the IPCC Briefing to Latvian Parliamentarians
This document summarizes a briefing given by IPCC officials to members of the Latvian Parliament. It discusses the IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report, focusing on mitigation pathways and options available now to halve emissions by 2030 in key sectors. Specific mitigation opportunities highlighted include building retrofits, urban solutions, and the crucial role of the built environment in achieving carbon neutrality. Adaptation strategies are also addressed, with examples given of the European Climate Mission providing support to update risk assessments and develop adaptation plans in focus areas like Latvia.
SRCCL Report
Climate change mitigation and adaptation options have the potential for synergies and trade-offs with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. Mitigation and adaptation measures could support certain SDGs related to health, food security, cities and communities, while also potentially conflicting with economic and social development goals depending on how they are designed and implemented. Policymakers should consider these interactions to maximize co-benefits and minimize negative impacts across mitigation, adaptation and development efforts.
Food, agriculture, land, and water: Insights from AR6 and knowledge gaps for AR7
Climate change is impacting the global water cycle and leading to effects across many economic sectors and societies. Most documented adaptations relate to water, and water is central to adaptation, though effectiveness decreases with increased warming. Many mitigation measures have significant water footprints that must be managed to reduce impacts on water and food security. Knowledge gaps remain around transition pathways for the agricultural sector that balance mitigation, adaptation, and sustainable development.
Agriculture and Food
Climate change is already impacting global food systems and future impacts are expected to be systemic, especially from increased heat. Climate change will raise risks of food insecurity, but climate adaptation of food systems can reduce these risks while also lowering greenhouse gas emissions. While climate adaptation in agriculture and food systems has received more attention, current adaptation efforts remain fragmented, small-scale, and focused more on planning than implementation.
Climate change, food, agriculture , land and A guide to findings in the IPCC’...
This document provides an overview of key findings from the IPCC's 6th assessment cycle regarding climate change impacts on food and water systems, risks of food systems and deforestation to climate change, climate change mitigation potentials, and synergies with sustainable development goals. It lists relevant figures from the IPCC reports and provides contact information for the IPCC Secretariat and Press Office.
Assessing the land sector potential in IPCC AR6 WGIII
The document discusses estimates of the land sector's potential to mitigate climate change from 2020-2050. It finds that the cost-effective potential (less than $100/ton of CO2) is estimated to be 8-14 gigatons of CO2 equivalent per year on average, which represents 24-42% of the sector's technical mitigation potential. Bottom-up sectoral models provide higher-resolution estimates at country and sub-national levels but have difficulty accounting for interactions between sectors, while integrated assessment models link all economic sectors but have coarser resolution and consider fewer land-based mitigation activities.
Overview of the IPCC Inventory Software for National Greenhouse Gas Inventori...
The document provides an overview of the latest version (2.89) of the IPCC Inventory Software for estimating national greenhouse gas inventories. Key points:
- Version 2.89 implements Tier 1-3 methods from the 2006 IPCC Guidelines and elements of the 2019 Refinement to facilitate reporting to the UNFCCC.
- It allows estimation of emissions at subnational levels and includes functions for uncertainty analysis and interfacing with the UNFCCC reporting tool.
- The software guides users through the estimation process category-by-category and generates a JSON file that can be imported into the UNFCCC reporting tool.
IPCC Emission Factor Database (EFDB)
The IPCC Emission Factor Database (EFDB) is an open library launched in 2002 that contains emission factors and other parameters used to estimate national greenhouse gas emissions. It is regularly updated with new peer-reviewed data and its usage and downloaded data have increased over time. In 2023, a new upgraded version was released with enhanced search functions and data statistics. An annual meeting is held for editorial board members and data providers to discuss proposals for new data to include and ways to improve the database. Over 2,400 new data points were recently accepted for inclusion after robustness, applicability, and documentation criteria were met.
IPCC TFI work on Methodology Report on Short-lived Climate Forcers (SLCFs)
The IPCC decided to develop a new Methodology Report on Short-Lived Climate Forcers during the AR7 cycle. Expert meetings were held to analyze existing methodologies, identify knowledge gaps, and develop category and species lists. A scoping meeting will take place in 2024 to determine the report outline, authors, and workplan. The report will be developed over several years and author meetings, with reviews by experts, governments, and the IPCC before final publication in 2027.
Adaptation-Mitigation Synergies and Trade-offs
Dr. Debora Ley presented at COP28 in Dubai on the Sixth Assessment Report from Working Group II on impacts, adaptation and vulnerability. The presentation discussed adaptation and mitigation synergies and trade-offs, the feasibility of adaptation measures, and thanked the audience for their attention.
Adaptation-Mitigation Synergies and Tradeoffs
This document discusses the synergies and tradeoffs between climate change adaptation and mitigation. It states that mitigation is critical to ensuring a wide range of effective adaptation options by limiting global warming increase. With increased warming, both human and natural systems will face greater losses and damages and exceed their limits of adaptation. The document also notes that response measures to climate change, like deployment of bioenergy crops, can impact food systems, ecosystems and water scarcity if used over large amounts of land. Dedicated bioenergy crops consistent with mitigation scenarios could require an area half the size of current global cropland.
Lessons learned and impacts of enhancing participation of young scientists in...
Sonia Seneviratne gave a presentation on involving youth and improving participation of young scientists in the IPCC process from a European perspective. She discussed how the climate crisis will impact future young generations the most. While young scientists made up 63% of first-time authors for the IPCC's AR6 report, most recurring authors were from Europe and North America. Barriers to participation for European youth included the extensive travel required for in-person meetings. Seneviratne concluded it is essential to better involve young people by having them serve as authors, observers, and stakeholders, and by reducing demands for travel through more virtual meetings while continuing support for less developed countries.

This document outlines opportunities for early career scientists to contribute to and get involved with the IPCC assessment process, including the approved outline, nomination and selection of authors, expert reviews, and the IPCC Scholarship Programme. It notes key milestones in the AR7 assessment process such as scoping approval, internal/government reviews, and report approval. The IPCC Scholarship Programme provides opportunities for young scientists from developing countries to further their climate change studies and has awarded over 90 scholarships to date funded by various partners.
IPCC Inventory Software: Waste Sector
The IPCC Inventory Software for the Waste Sector allows for subnational disaggregation of waste data and implements methods for estimating greenhouse gas emissions from waste. It features a Waste Type Manager to centrally manage parameters for different waste categories. Users can select waste types and disposal sites to estimate methane emissions. The software also enables estimation of nitrous oxide from industrial wastewater and interoperates with UNFCCC reporting tools. A guidebook for the waste sector is under development.

The document summarizes guidebooks being produced by the IPCC to support use of its inventory software. It describes guidebooks for the energy and AFOLU sectors that provide step-by-step guidance on using the software to estimate emissions for each category. It also describes a guide on land representation that explains how to characterize land types and units in the software's land managers. User feedback is sought to improve the guidebooks and address any issues.

This document discusses interoperability between the IPCC Inventory Software and the UNFCCC ETF Reporting Tool to help countries meet their reporting obligations under the Paris Agreement. It outlines a 6-step process for countries to use the IPCC Software to estimate emissions, generate a JSON file, import this file into the ETF Tool to visualize and quality check their inventory data, and finally submit it to the UNFCCC. The goal is to promote consistency, reduce errors and burden, and provide organizational support to countries. Future releases of the IPCC Software will add additional sectors to be interoperable with the ETF Tool by June 2024.

The document provides an overview of the latest version (2.89) of the IPCC Inventory Software for estimating national greenhouse gas inventories. Version 2.89 implements Tier 1-3 methods from the 2006 IPCC Guidelines and elements of the 2019 Refinement. It also facilitates interoperability with the UNFCCC reporting tool. The software allows subnational reporting, uses of mixed Tiers, and stores inventory data in a single database. Ongoing work includes developing a land representation tool and guidebook. The IPCC TSU provides support to users through documentation, help desk, and annual meetings.
Carbon Dioxide Removal to reach net-zero and return from overshoot
1) The document discusses key findings around carbon dioxide removal (CDR) from the IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).
2) AR6 defines CDR as activities that remove CO2 from the atmosphere and store it durably, including both natural and enhanced biological and geochemical sinks as well as direct air capture with storage.
3) AR6 assessed CDR methods and their effects, finding that feedbacks will determine CDR effectiveness in drawing down atmospheric CO2. Pathways in AR6 all involve some amount of CDR to balance residual emissions, but specific volumes depend on contextual factors.
The road ahead for the IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Cities in AR7
The document discusses the upcoming IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Cities in AR7. It notes that the report is supported by several organizations and will involve contributions from all three IPCC working groups. It also discusses how the report will build upon cross-working group integration that began in AR6, examining topics like urban climate impacts, policy options, and the climate impacts of mitigation actions. The document asks what people are looking for in the upcoming Special Report and why.

Mass Production of Trichogramma sp..pptx
Trichogramma spp. is an efficient egg parasitoids that potentially assist to manage the insect-pests from the field condition by parasiting the host eggs. To mass culture this egg parasitoids effectively, we need to culture another stored grain pest- Rice Meal Moth (Corcyra Cephalonica). After rearing this pest, the eggs of Corcyra will carry the potential Trichogramma spp., which is an Hymenopteran Wasp. The detailed Methodologies of rearing both Corcyra Cephalonica and Trichogramma spp. have described on this ppt.

Editor's Notes
- The front and the back cover of the report pays tribute to the various regions addressed in this assessment, from the polar regions to tropical shores. The ocean and cryosphere – the frozen parts of our planet – might feel remote to some people. But they impact all of us, for weather and climate, food and water, or for energy, trade, transport, for health and wellbeing, for culture and identity. The ocean and the cryosphere are critical for all life on earth. And this report has shown, that if greenhouse gas emissions continue to increase, global warming will drastically alter the ocean and cryosphere. However, if we reduce emissions sharply, consequences for people and their livelihoods will still be challenging. But they will be potentially more manageable for those who are most vulnerable. The report reveals the benefits of ambitious and effective adaptation for sustainable development. Conversely there may be escalating costs and risks associated with delayed action.
- …and small island developing states are home to 65 million people. 680 million people in low-lying coastal zones. And they are vulnerable to sea level rise and coastal extreme events.
- Many Pacific Islands are already experiencing HCEs every year.
- Marine life is already being affected by warming and changes in ocean chemistry, with impacts on the people that depend on them.
