The Seventh Assessment Report (AR7) will comprise of the following contributions:聽

• Working Group I report on the Physical Science Basis聽
• Working Group II report on Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability聽
• Update of the 1994 IPCC Technical Guidelines on Adaptation (in conjunction with the Working Group II report)聽
• Working Group III report on Mitigation of Climate Change.聽
• Synthesis Report聽

About the Scoping Meeting聽

The United Kingdom has been invited to nominate experts to participate in a Scoping Meeting to draft an outline for AR7. The meeting is tentatively scheduled to take place in December 2024. The IPCC Focal Point, who is in the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, is responsible for nominating experts, which are then selected by the IPCC 叠耻谤别补耻.听听

When selecting participants, the IPCC Bureau will give consideration to the following criteria:

• scientific, technical and socio-economic expertise, including the range of views
• geographical representation
• a mixture of experts with and without previous experience in IPCC
• gender balance
• experts with a background from relevant stakeholder and user groups, including:
  • urban practitioners and planners
  • representatives of civil society organizations
  • local/ regional governments

Please note that the Scoping Meeting is separate to the report production and there will be a further nomination process for authors once the draft outline has been agreed by the Panel.聽

Collectively the participants of the Scoping Meeting should have expertise in the following areas:聽

Working Group I聽

• observation, monitoring of climate variables, reanalyses (ocean, atmosphere, cryosphere, land, freshwater, coasts), process understanding (water cycle, short-lived climate forcers and air quality, other climate system processes)
• climate modelling (global, Earth System Models, regional, coupled, ocean, atmosphere, cryosphere, land, hydrology, chemistry and biogeochemistry) and model evaluation
• statistical climatology (trends, extremes, attribution, downscaling and bias correction, observation constraints, AI), recent global and regional trends
• near-term and long-term ensemble projections, storylines, emulators, uncertainties, carbon budget
• climate services and decision-support tools (experience working with stakeholders)
• high-impact climate outcomes and abrupt changes including tipping points, compounding and cascading events
• physical aspects of renewable resources (energy, water and so on)

Working Group II聽

• impacts, losses and damages on, and vulnerability and risk for natural (such as land, freshwater, biodiversity and oceans), human (such as human safety, mobility and migration, health, economic sectors, poverty, livelihoods, and cultural heritage), and managed human-natural systems with implications for climate resilient development
• evaluating climate change adaptation: methods for monitoring, setting indicators, metrics and targets, measuring observed and projected policy effectiveness at multiple temporal and spatial scales
• scenarios and assessments of integrated adaptation, mitigation and development policies at multiple governance levels (local to multi-national) accounting for gender, equity, justice and/or indigenous knowledge, and local knowledges
• aggregation of information on impacts, vulnerability, adaptation and risks to settlements (rural, urban, cities, small islands), and infrastructure and systems (such as sanitation and hygiene, water, food, nutrition, economic and energy security, industry, health and well-being, mobility)
• adaptation needs, options, opportunities, constraints, limits, enabling conditions, policy impacts and influencing factors including contributions from governance, finance, law, psychology and sociology
• global dimension of adaptation responses: financial incentivization, responding to losses and damages, equity, justice, finance and governance, and so on
• socio-cultural, psychological, political and legal drivers of making and implementing decisions

Working Group III聽

• mitigation responses in energy, industry, transport, buildings, agriculture, forestry, land use and waste; energy systems planning (including energy storage, demand side management, energy supply technologies and so on)
• cross-sectoral mitigation options covering land, coastal and ocean systems, including sector coupling, carbon dioxide removal, carbon capture and storage, carbon capture and utilization, and so on
• emission trends (consumption patterns, human behaviour and emissions trends, including economic, sociological and cultural aspects)
• scenarios and transitions at the global, national, regional and local scales
• governance (policies, institutions, agreements and instruments) at the international, national and subnational levels, including just transitions of sectors and systems
• mitigation and sustainable development (capacity building; technology innovation, transfer and adoption; related enabling conditions; international cooperation)
• economic and financial aspects of mitigation options

Cross-cutting areas聽

• integration of different forms of climate-related knowledge and data, including indigenous knowledge, local knowledge, and practice-based knowledge
• regional (including terrestrial, ocean, and coastal) and sectoral climate information
• carbon dioxide removal, solar radiation modification and associated earth system impacts/ feedbacks
• scenarios and pathways, including physical climate, impacts and adaptation, mitigation, development, feasibility and socio-cultural considerations (equity, ethics, finance)聽
• co-benefits, avoided impacts, risks and co-costs of mitigation and adaptation, including: interactions and trade-offs, technological and financial challenges, options and implementation and low regret options
• ethics and equity dimensions of climate change, sustainable development, gender, poverty eradication, livelihoods, health, and food security
• societal responses to spatial and temporal dimensions of risks and benefits of climate change, including sociological, financial, cultural and communication aspects
