Integrated Land Ecosystem-Atmosphere Processes Study, iLEAPS |
|
iLEAPS is the land-atmosphere core project of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP). The scientific goal of iLEAPS is to provide understanding how interacting physical, chemical and biological processes transport and transform energy and matter through the land-atmosphere interface. iLEAPS encourages international and interdisciplinary collaboration, particularly involving scientists from the developing countries. |

IGBP statement on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change |
|
In this statement IGBP sets out that the IPCC process for assessing climate change, its causes, its impacts and responses, is reliable and unbiased. Since the 2007 publication of the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report, new evidence has emerged that further supports all overarching conclusions of the Fourth Assessment Report. Full text of the statement can be found on IGBP website. |
