The Critical Role of Observations in Informing Climate Science, Assessment and Policy
Climate, Data exchange, Observations
Bulletin nº Vol 70 (2) - 2021
Theme: Climate
6
Publish Date: 6 October 2021
Scientific evidence of climate change is unequivocal. Human-induced climate change is already affecting every region of the Earth, with many experiencing more frequent weather and climate extremes. This conclusion was...

The State of the Climate in Africa 2020 report is a collaborative product of WMO, African Union Commission, United Nations agencies, including the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) through the...
Arctic Council Observer
The WMO Polar and High Mountain regions priority activity promotes and coordinates relevant observations, research and services that are carried out in the Arctic, Antarctic and high mountain regions by nations and by groups of nations. It interfaces with all WMO activities (including the World Climate and World Weather Research Programmes) and other related programmes throughout the world, meeting global needs and requirements for observations, research and services in the polar and high mountain regions.

Cryosphere
The cryosphere is the part of the Earth‘s climate system that includes solid precipitation, snow, sea ice, lake and river ice, icebergs, glaciers and ice caps, ice sheets, ice shelves, permafrost, and seasonally frozen ground. The term “cryosphere” traces its origins to the Greek word ‘kryos’ for frost or ice cold.
Global Cryosphere Watch
Cryosphere, Observations, Data exchange, WMO, Partnership, Antarctica, Arctic, Polar
The WMO's Global Cryosphere Watch (GCW) fosters international coordination and partnerships between scientific and operational communities with the goal of meeting the cryosphere data and information need of Members and partners, in support of Earth system monitoring, modeling and prediction. GCW operates under the remit of the Infrastructure Commission (INFCOM).
Cryosphere Related Hazards
The current global warming trend causes global mass loss of ice and snow, resulting in a general retreat of the cryosphere. These changes affect the surrounding natural systems and cause an increased occurrence rate of natural hazard events.
Cryosphere Elements
The cryosphere is the part of the Earth‘s climate system that includes solid precipitation, snow, sea ice, lake and river ice, icebergs, glaciers and ice caps, ice sheets, ice shelves, permafrost, and seasonally frozen ground.

Panel on Polar and High Mountain Observations, Research, and Services
Applications, Polar, Antarctica, Arctic, Observations, Climate services, Research, Natural hazards
The Executive Council Panel on Polar and High Mountain Observation, Research and Services (EC-PHORS) plays a meaningful role on overseeing, coordinating and monitoring how polar and high-mountain observations, research, services and policies are developed and implemented within and externally to WMO, in response of significant changes in the polar and high mountain environments.
