Abstract

Teleconnections is a central concept in the scientific search for an improved understanding of potential linkages between weather and climate anomalies that occur over relatively large distances. The editors of this volume have brought together contributions from experts in the field, which together provide a comprehensive review of this important subject. This book will be of importance to all professional scientists and researchers in climatology and meteorology, particularly those concerned with air-sea interactions and their environmental impacts and the physical basis for and societal responses to forecasting. Graduate students in environmental science, meteorology and climate-related impact assessments will also find the book useful.

Abstract

The proceedings of this workshop provide a valuable review of the methodologies of climate observations during the past 150 years, together with a summary of their findings, and a description of the difficulties inherent in their interpretation. In addition the volume reviews the use of climate model simulations of greenhouse-gas-induced equilibrium and nonequilibrium change. Finally, the contributed papers consider the methodologies of climate change detection by comparison of model simulations and climate observations, a summary of findings, and a description of what should be done to detect

Abstract

This volume contains the proceedings of the Second World Climate Conference which was held in Geneva in October-November 1990. lt was an opportunity for world-class experts from a broad range of scientific and socio-economic disciplines to review latest developments and recommend actions to address the problem of global climate change. Scientific and technical discussions were followed by a ministerial meeting attended by 137 countries. This volume includes the following : (-) Highlights of the IPCC Assessment ; (-) Overview of the World Climate Programme ; (-) Climate Change Research and Impact Studies ; (-) Multi-disciplinary Task Group Reports ; (-) Summaries of Panel Discussions ; (-) The Scientific and Technical Conference Statement ; (-) Texts of Addresses by Six Heads of State/Government ; (-) The Ministerial Declaration. The invited scientific and technical papers included in this book cover climate-related aspects of atmospheric sciences, oceanography, water resources, energy, agriculture, forestry, land use, human health, environment and development, and provide the current perspectives of leading experts from both developing and industrialized countries. The Conference Statement and Ministerial Declaration set the stage for ongoing negotiations leading to an international agreement on climate change in preparation for the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro. This book is not only an important statement about the current knowledge of climate change and its effect on the world's environment and prospects for sustainable socio-economic development, but also a summary of the technical programmes and political actions needed to deal with this major global problem.
