GCOS, 120. Report of the Tenth Session of the IOC Group of Experts on the Global Sea Level Observing System (GLOSS)
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP); International Council for Science (ICSU); et al. - UNESCO, 2008The Group of Experts reviewed the status of its actions and developed a consolidated list for the next intersessional period. After reviewing the state of the GLOSS Core Network and identifying upgrade needs globally, the Group decided to update its Implementation Plan, with particular emphasis on specific technical development of the Network, and on the impact of technological changes on station design, including data delivery. The revised Plan will be aimed at moving the GLOSS Core Network from a research-support service to an operational, multi-purpose, real-time system, especially for tsun ...

One planet, Many people. Africa
UNEP, 2008Increasing concern as to how human activities impact Africa’s environment has led to documentation and quantification of the changes taking place. Through a combination of ground photographs, current and historical satellite images, and narrative based on extensive scientific evidence, this publication illustrates how humans have altered their surroundings and continue to make observable and measurable changes to Africa and its environment. A large-format, hard cover atlas of environmental change in each of Africa’s 53 countries, with reports on their progress toward the United Nation’s Millen ...

Scientific Assessment of Ozone Depletion: 2006 - Twenty Questions and Answers about the Ozone Layer: 2006 update (GORMP 50)
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA); United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP); et al. - WMO, 2007To help maintain a broad understanding of the relationship between ozone depletion, ODSs, and the Montreal Protocol, this component of the Scientific Assessment of Ozone Depletion: 2006 presents 20 questions and answers about the often-complex science of ozone depletion. Most questions and answers are updates of those presented in previous Ozone Assessments, while others have been added or expanded to address newly emerging issues. The questions address the nature of atmospheric ozone, the chemicals that cause ozone depletion, how global and polar ozone depletion occur, the success of the Mont ...
Scientific Assessment of Ozone Depletion: 2006 - Report of the Montreal Protocol Scientific Assessment Panel (GORMP 50)
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA); United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP); et al. - WMO, 2007It has been recognized since the 1970s that a number of compounds emitted by human activities deplete stratospheric ozone. The montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone layer was adopted in 1987 to protect global ozone and, consequently, protect life from increased ultraviolet (UV) radiation at Earth’s surface. Chlorine- and brominecontaining substances that are controlled by the montreal Protocol are known as ozone-depleting substances (ODSs).
ODSs are responsible for the depletion of stratospheric ozone observed in polar regions (for example, the “ozone hole” above An ...
