DOWNLOAD EBOOKExtreme weather and climate events, interacting with exposed and vulnerable human and natural systems, can lead to disasters. This Special Report explores the social as well as physical dimensions of weather- and climate-related disasters, considering opportunities for managing risks at local to international scales. SREX was approved and accepted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) on 18 November 2011 in Kampala, Uganda.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWith a long history and deep connection to the Earth’s resources, indigenous peoples have an intimate understanding and ability to observe the impacts linked to climate change. Traditional ecological knowledge and tribal experience play a key role in developing future scientific solutions for adaptation to the impacts. The book explores climate-related issues for indigenous communities in the United States, including loss of traditional knowledge, forests and ecosystems, food security and traditional foods, as well as water, Arctic sea ice loss, permafrost thaw and relocation. The book also highlights how tribal communities and programs are responding to the changing environments. Fifty authors from tribal communities, academia, government agencies and NGOs contributed to the book. Previously published in Climatic Change, Volume 120, Issue 3, 2013.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume contains the proceedings of the Third Conference on the Climatic Impact Assessment Program (CIAP), held at the DOT Transportation Systems Center from February 26 to March 1, 1972. It includes 45 invited papers, 20 unscheduled presentations, and edited question-and-answer sessions following some of the papers. The conference was essentially a progress report on CIAP. Therefore, some of the papers contain new data not yet published elsewhere, and others describe experimental equipment. Reports on work relevant to CIAP, though not sponsored by it, are also included. The subjects covered include aircraft-engine emissions, the nature of the 'undisturbed' stratosphere of 1974, the nature of the 'perturbed' stratosphere of 1990-2025, the possible resulting tropospheric perturbations, and the biological and economic effects of such perturbations.
