date: Thu, 22 Jan 98 17:27:46 EST from: ddokken@usgcrp.gov (Dave Dokken) subject: TAR Nomination Letter to: tar@usgcrp.gov, tp_impacts@usgcrp.gov, tp_policy@usgcrp.gov, tpfyi_impacts@usgcrp.gov, tpfyi_policy@usgcrp.gov, tprev_impacts@usgcrp.gov, tprev_policy@usgcrp.gov No. 27096/M/IPCC/TAR Geneva, 5 December 1997 Sir/Madam, I have the honour of writing to you to invite nomination(s) from your Government of experts for consideration as Lead Author(s), Contributing Author(s) or Review Editor(s) for the different chapters of the Third Assessment Report (TAR) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). As you may know, the IPCC has been jointly established by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) to assess available information on the science, the environmental and the socio-economic impacts, options for adaptation and mitigation and the economics of climate change and to provide, on request, scientific/technical/socio-economic information to the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UN FCCC) and its bodies. As you may further know, the IPCC decided at its Thirteenth Session (Maldives, 22 & 25-28 September 1997) that the TAR would consist of the Reports of its three Working Groups, with their respective Summaries for Policymakers and Technical Summaries, and an IPCC Synthesis Report (see the attached copy, in Annex 1, of the Decision Paper on the IPCC Third Assessment Report). The Working Group Reports are expected to be completed late in the year 2000 and the Synthesis Report by mid-2001. Being fully intergovernmental, it has been the practice in IPCC for the Governments in the developed world to support their respective Lead Authors/Contributing Authors/Review Editors for participation in the preparation of the chapters/sections of the TAR. Such support extends to the travel and subsistence of Lead Authors/Review Editors to attend meetings of Lead Authors and other relevant meetings such as the sessions of the IPCC Working Groups and of the IPCC. The travel and subsistence of the Lead Authors/Review Editors from the developing countries and countries with economies in transition to attend the meetings of Lead Authors and other relevant meetings will be borne out of the IPCC Trust Fund by the IPCC Secretariat. The Contributing Authors are normally not required to attend these meetings. An IPCC description of the roles and responsibilities of its Lead Authors/Contributing Authors is attached, in Annex 2, for your information. The Lead Authors are expected to draft the chapters, revise them at the end of the three IPCC- mandated reviews, namely, the expert review, government technical/expert review and the final government review for further action. They will also contribute to drafting, revising and finalizing the Summaries for Policymakers (SPMs). The roles and responsibilities of Review Editors are to be found in Decision 7 in the attached Decision Paper (Annex 1). The presence of Review Editors and selected Lead Authors may be requested at the sessions of the Working Groups and of the IPCC to assist in finalizing the SPM and/or the Report. To Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the Members of the UN and of WMO The time commitment envisaged for the Lead Authors is of the order of a month or two per year for 1998, 1999 and 2000 and that for Review Editors is less the first year; this time includes attendance in the meetings. It is expected that the Lead Authors/Review Editors each would need to attend 3 meetings in 1998, one as early as in May. Charged with assessing and presenting factual matter, the tasks of the IPCC require that the nominee(s) have appropriate expertise. In this connection, I wish to inform you that the IPCC re-organized its Working Groups II and III at the Thirteenth Session so that: (i) Working Group I will continue to assess the scientific aspects of the climate system and climate change; (ii) Working Group II will assess the scientific, technical, environmental, economic and social aspects of vulnerability (i.e., sensitivity and adaptability) to climate change of, and the negative and positive impacts for, ecological systems, socio-economic sectors and human health, with an emphasis on regional sectoral and cross-sectoral issues; (iii) Working Group III will assess the scientific, technical, environmental, economic and social aspects of the mitigation of climate change, and through a multidisciplinary task group, will assess the methodological aspects of cross-cutting issues (e.g., equity, discount rates and decision-making frameworks). The Synthesis Report will provide a policy-relevant synthesis and integration of the three Working Group Reports. A provisional listing of the contents of the Reports of the three Working Groups is enclosed, as Annex 3, for your use in guiding the choice your nominee(s). As many experts as you wish may be nominated whether it be for the same chapter or for different chapters. Every nomination must be accompanied by a curriculum vitae (c.v.) which includes a list of publications (or describes equivalent experience) in the field of the candidate's expertise. The IPCC will be unable to consider any candidacy which is unaccompanied by a c.v. For your information, nominations are being requested from intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations as well. Irrespective of such request, your Government may wish to include experts from the academia, industry, environmental organizations and other non-governmental bodies in your nomination(s). All nominations will be forwarded to the respective Bureaux of the Working Groups, who are charged with selecting the Lead Authors/Contributing Authors/Review Editors. The IPCC procedures call for the inclusion of at least one Lead Author from the developing world for every chapter. Authors will be listed chapter-wise in the TAR. All nominations should reach me no later than 27 February 1998 at the IPCC Secretariat, c/o World Meteorological Organization, 41, Avenue Giuseppe Motta, P.O. Box 2300, CH-1211 Geneva 2, Switzerland (Tel: +41 22 7308208/284; Fax: +41 22 7331270; Telex: 414190 OMM CH). Your Government is invited to make use of the attached form (Annex 4) in making the nomination(s). The form can be duplicated as many times as you wish. Copies of this letter are being sent to the IPCC Focal/Contact Point(s), if any, the Permanent Representative with WMO and the UNEP Focal Point(s) of your country for information. Accept, Sir/Madam, the assurances of my highest consideration. N. Sundararaman Secretary of the IPCC ANNEX 1 The IPCC Third Assessment Report Decision Paper 1.

Scope of the Working Groups and Nomination of Lead Authors (i) The IPCC agrees that the proposed scope of each of the three Working Groups (outlined in the Background section) is adequate for the IPCC Secretary to promptly request governments and IPCC focal points, as well as organizations and experts to propose lead authors for the Third Assessment Report; (ii) The IPCC agrees that the Working Group Bureaus will meet early in 1998 to provisionally identify lead authors for the Third Assessment report primarily based on written proposals received from governments, organizations and experts (curriculum vitaes should accompany nominations to assist the Bureaus select the most appropriate experts); (iii) The IPCC agrees that the chapter structures of each Working Group will be developed at a scoping meeting that will be attended by the Working Group Bureaus and the provisionally identified lead authors, and later approved by the IPCC Working Groups in mid-1998. 4. Scope and Structure of the Synthesis Report (i) The IPCC agrees that the Third Assessment Report should include a Synthesis Report that will be written in a non-technical style suitable for policymakers and will address a broad range of key policy-relevant questions; (ii) The IPCC agrees that the IPCC Chairman and the Working Group Co-chairs will develop a list of key policy-relevant scientific questions in consultation with the President of the Conference of the Parties (COP) and the chairs of the subsidiary, and other, bodies of the COP, using the mechanism of the IPCC/FCC Joint Working Group. The list will be circulated to governments for comment and the IPCC will approve the list at its Fourteenth Session. This list can be revised at a later date under the responsibility of the IPCC Chair, and with the approval of the IPCC; (iii) The IPCC agrees that the Working Groups will be asked to include assessment information relevant to those key policy-relevant scientific questions in their contributions to the TAR and to bring forward the key points in their summaries for policy-makers; (iv) The IPCC agrees that the Synthesis Report should synthesize/integrate material contained within the assessment reports of the three Working Groups; (v) The IPCC agrees that the Synthesis Report should consist of a short SPM and a longer report; (vi) The IPCC agrees that the SPM of the Synthesis Report will undergo a simultaneous expert/government review, and then be approved line by line by the IPCC; (vii) The IPCC agrees that the IPCC Chair will chair a geographically balanced the writing team for the Synthesis Report, with the writing team composition being agreed by the IPCC Bureau. 5. Responsibility for ongoing special reports (i) The IPCC agrees that the Special Report entitled RAviation and the Global AtmosphereS will continue to be developed under the Co-chairs and TSUs of the past (1992-1997) Working Groups I and II, but in close collaboration with the new co-chairs and TSUs of Working Groups I and III, and will be submitted for approval/acceptance to a joint session of the new Working Groups I and III; (ii) The IPCC agrees that the Special Report entitled RMethodological and Technological Aspects of Technology Transfer: Opportunities for Technology CooperationS will continue to be developed under the Co-chairs and TSU of the past (1992-1997) Working Group II, but in close collaboration with the new Working Group III Co-chairs and TSU, and will be submitted for approval/acceptance to a session of the new Working Group III; (iii) The IPCC agrees that the Special Report entitled REmissions ScenariosS will be transferred for further development to the new Working Group III after the Thirteenth session of the IPCC ( Maldives, 22 and 25-28 September, 1997) and will be submitted for approval/acceptance to a session of the new Working Group III. 6. Peer-review process for the Working Group Reports of the Third Assessment Report (i) The IPCC agrees that Working Group reports (chapters, chapter executive summaries, and technical summaries) should undergo sequential open expert and expert/government peer reviews and then be accepted by the Working Groups; (ii) The Summaries for Policymakers will undergo simultaneous expert/government reviews and then be approved line-by-line by the Working Groups. 7. The Editorial Review Process (i) The IPCC agrees that review editor(s) should be selected for the chapters (including their executive summaries) and technical summary of each Working Group report; (ii) The IPCC agrees that the review editors should be selected from both members of the Working Group Bureaus and independent experts. Review editors should not be involved in the preparation or review of material for which they are an review editor; (iii) The IPCC agrees that there should be one or two review editors per chapter and per technical summary; (iv) The IPCC agrees that the Working Group Bureaus are responsible for the selection of the review editors, ensuring appropriate representation from developed countries, developing countries and countries with economies in transition; (v) The IPCC agrees that the primary responsibilities of the review editors include: (i) assisting the Working Group Bureaus in identifying reviewers for the RexpertS review process; (ii) ensuring that all substantive expert and government review comments are afforded appropriate consideration; (iii) advising lead authors on how to handle contentious/controversial issues; and (iv) ensuring genuine scientific controversies are reflected adequately in the text. (vi) The IPCC agrees that the review editors communicate their findings to the Working Group sessions. (vii) The IPCC agrees that responsibility for the final text is that of the lead authors. Where significant differences of opinion remain unresolved, the review editors should ensure that such differences are described in an Annex to the report. 8. Timing of the Third Assessment Report (i) The IPCC agrees that the three Working Group Reports of the Third Assessment Report should be approved/accepted by late 2000/ early 2001; (ii) The IPCC agrees that the Synthesis Report should be completed during the second quarter of the year 2001. 9. Promoting Enhanced participation of experts from Developing Countries and Countries with Economies in Transition (i) The IPCC agrees that the IPCC Vice-chairs and Working Group Bureau members from developing countries and countries with economies in transition work with IPCC focal points within their regions to identify appropriate review editors, lead authors, contributing authors and peer-reviewers: in addition, all members of the Bureaus are encouraged to assist in this process; (ii) The IPCC agrees that the Working Group Bureaus should ensure balanced representation of lead authors (experts from developed and developing countries, and countries with economies in transition); (iii) The IPCC agrees that the Working Group Bureaus should be encouraged to increase the number of expert meetings and workshops in developing countries and countries with economies in transition, thus contributing to enhancing the networks of scientists and other experts in these regions. 10. Promoting the participation of experts from Business/Industry/Finance, Development and Environmental Organizations (i) The IPCC agrees that non-government experts, including those from business, industry, finance and development and environmental organizations, with relevant expertise, should be involved in the preparation and review of the Third Assessment Report; (ii) The IPCC agrees that itUs Bureau and the TSUs, assist the IPCC Secretary, in identifying those experts; (iii) The IPCC agrees that it will be critical to have balance, including geographic balance, within and between experts from various non-governmental organizations. These experts will act in their personnel capacity, bring to bear their scientific, technological and economic expertise. 11. Utilization of the non-English Language Literature (i) The IPCC agrees that the Working Group Bureaus, in conjunction with the chapter lead authors, should make every effort to assess the non-English language literature. 12. Publication Procedures (i) The IPCC agrees that itUs Secretary, in conjunction with the Working Group TSUs, should examine the potential of placing IPCC publications on Internet while using a commercial publisher. 13. Translation Procedures (i) The IPCC agrees that the IPCC Secretary should invite all governments (developed, developing and countries with economies in transition) to contribute to the work of the IPCC by translating accepted Working Group reports into non-English languages, in particular the official UN languages. 14. Structure of the IPCC Bureau (i) The IPCC agrees that the Bureau should consist of thirty members: the IPCC Chairman, the five IPCC Vice-chairmen, and the Bureaus of the three Working Groups; (ii) The IPCC agrees that the Bureau should be balanced, i.e., between developed countries, countries with economies in transition and developing countries; and between regions; (iii) The IPCC agrees that there will be five IPCC Vice- chairs: two developed countries, one being a country with an economy in transition; and three from developing countries (one each from WMO regions 1, 2 or 5, 3 or 4); (vi) The IPCC agrees that each Working Group has two Co-chairs (one from a developed country and one from a developing country); (v) The IPCC agrees that there is one developing country Working Group Co-chair from each of Africa, Asia and Latin America/Caribbean; (vi) The IPCC agrees that each Working Group Bureau will consist of two Co-chairs and six Vice-chairs (one from each of the WMO regions not covered by the co-chairs, wherever possible); (vii) The IPCC agrees that each WMO region may nominate their candidates for the IPCC Vice-chairs and its representatives on each Working Group Bureau (co-chairs and vice-chairs), taking into account the relevant expertise/qualifications needed to perform the roles and responsibilities assigned to the IPCC Vice-chairs and Working Group Bureaus. 15. Funding for technical support units (i) The IPCC agrees that the traditional approach be largely continued, whereby the government of the developed country Co-chair assumes the primary responsibility for funding the TSU (office space, equipment, postage, communications, publications, travel, expert meeting facilities, and 1-2 professional and 3-4 support staff); (ii) The IPCC agrees that the IPCC trust fund should fund, to the extent needed and financially feasible, the agreed costs to assist the developing country Co- chairs perform their duties; (iii) The IPCC agrees that the secondments and/or financial assistance to the TSUs from the developed country Vice-chairs is highly desirable. 16. Financial task team (i) The IPCC agrees to establish a small financial task team to review income and expenditures, to assist in preparing the annual budget and to develop other recommendations on matters related to finance and administration for consideration by the IPCC; (ii) The IPCC agrees that the team should be co-chaired by two government representatives from countries represented on the IPCC Bureau: one from a developed country, and one from either a developing country or country with an economy in transition. The co-chairs, and other members of the team (about four government representatives from countries represented on the Bureau), will be selected by the Bureau. ANNEX 2 Tasks and Responsibilities for Lead Authors, Contributors, and Expert Reviewers of IPCC Report and IPCC Government Contacts 1. LEAD AUTHORS (LAs) Function: To produce designated sections addressing items of the work programme on the basis of the best scientific and technical information available. Comment: Lead authors will typically work as small groups which have responsibility for ensuring that the various components of their sections are brought together on time, are of uniformly high quality and conform to any overall standards of style set for the document as a whole. The task of lead authors is a demanding one and in recognition of this the names of LAs should appear prominently in the final report. During the final stages of report preparation, when the workload is often particularly heavy and when lead authors are heavily dependent upon each other to read and edit material, and to agree to changes promptly, it is essential that the work should be accorded the highest priority. The essence of the lead authors' task is synthesis of material drawn from the peer reviewed literature, generated at workshops or submitted by contributors. Lead authors may not necessarily write original text themselves, but they must have the proven technical ability to develop text that is scientifically sound and that faithfully represents, to the extent that this is possible, contributions by a wide variety of experts. The ability to work to deadlines is also a necessary practical requirement. Principles Governing IPCC Work require LAs to record views which cannot be reconciled with a consensus view but which are nonetheless scientifically or technically valid. Lead authors may convene meetings with contributors, as appropriate, in their preparations of their sections and to suggest any workshops in their relevant areas to the Subgroup or Working Group co-chairs. 2. CONTRIBUTORS Function: To prepare technical information in the form of text, graphs or data for assimilation by the lead authors into the draft section. Comment: Input from a wide range of contributors is a key element in the success of IPCC assessments, and the names of all contributors should be acknowledged in the reports. Contributions are sometimes solicited by Lead Authors but unprompted contributions are positively encouraged. Contributed material may be edited, merged and if necessary, amended, in the course of developing the overall draft text. 3. EXPERT REVIEWERS Function: To comment on the accuracy and completeness of the scientific/technical content and the overall scientific/technical balance of the drafts. Comment: Expert reviewers will comment on the text according to their own knowledge and experience. They may be nominated by Governments, national and international organizations, Working Group Bureaus, Lead Authors and contributors. 4. GOVERNMENT REVIEW Function: To comment on the accuracy and completeness of the scientific/technical content and the overall scientific/technical balance of the drafts. Comment: Government review will typically be carried out within and between a number of Departments and Ministries. Countries may convene their own seminars and workshops to review draft reports and advise on comments. For administrative convenience, countries should nominate a single IPCC Government Contact. ANNEX 3 Provisional Listing of the Contents of the IPCC Third Assessment Report (TAR) This list is based on the outline which was provided in the background to Decision 3 in the IPCC Decision Paper on TAR.
