Climate Change Library

In the context of Climate 2008 a Climate Change Studies Library has been established. This is a one-stop site where information on studies and reports are available and can be downloaded. This site will facilitate access to information on research and studies on climate change and allows contacts with the agencies performing such studies, hence increasing accessibility and know-how transfer.

"Interested persons/organisations are kindly invited to apply with their studies/reports for incorporation in the website (info@klima2010.net)."
