Penentuan Tingkat Rujukan (Reference Level) untuk Menduga Penurunan Emisi dari Restorasi Gambut
Emisi dan peningkatan konsentrasi gas rumah kaca (GRK) merupakan penyebab perubahan iklim yang menjadi isu global dan tantangan bagi masyarakat antarbangsa. Berbagai upaya telah dan akan terus dilakukan oleh pemerintah, termasuk pemerintah Indonesia, untuk mengurangi emisi GRK tanpa harus mengorbankan pembangunan untuk kesejahteraan masyarakat.
Reference Level for the Estimation of Emission Reduction from Peatland Restoration
The Government of Indonesia’s position and commitment to sustainable development is already widely known, as is its commitment to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions; the cause of global climate change. Indonesia’s commitment to reducing greenhouse gases is laid out in its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) document, and was recorded in the United Nations Framework Convention […]
Assessing Sustainability and Effectiveness of Climate Information Services in Africa
Africa is one of the most vulnerable continents to climate variability and change due to its high exposure to climate shocks and stresses (e.g., droughts) and relatively low adaptive capacities (IPCC Fifth Assessment Report, 2014). In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) rain-fed agriculture, which is vital for a large percentage of the rural population and contributes significantly […]
Development of Metrics to Assess National Meteorological Services in Africa
Effective Climate Information Services (CIS) provides climate and weather information and related advisory services at temporal and spatial scales relevant to a range of stakeholders, including decision-makers at regional, national, and local community levels such as smallholder farmers and civil society. CIS should meet the immediate needs of agricultural communities and serve as the foundation […]
NMHS Capacity Development Assessment: Assessing the Current Status and Priority Needs of Climate Information Services in Africa
Following the establishment of the Global Framework for Climate Services (GFCS) in 2009, the need to deliver climate services has become mainstream (and expected) amongst National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs). This expected delivery of climate services includes the appropriate engagement and capacity development of users of climate information. However, the delivery of user-relevant climate […]
Learning Agenda on Climate Information Services in Sub Saharan Africa
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Africa is one of the most vulnerable continents to climate variability and change due to its high exposure to climate shocks and stresses (e.g., droughts) and relatively low adaptive capacities. In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), more than 65 percent of the population derive their livelihood from rain-fed agriculture. […]
Approaches to Collect, Exchange, and Integrate National and Global Datasets
African countries are exposed to a range of significant climate-related risks, including variability in water resources, presence of climate-sensitive diseases, and dependence on rain-fed agriculture. As such, there is a critical need for timely information on past, current and future climate monitoring to help inform decision-making across multiple sectors. Yet African populations have historically been […]
Approaches to Combine Technologies for Weather Observation, Storage and Analysis
The Global Framework for Climate Services lists meteorological observation as a key pillar in the overall framework, citing observation, data storage and data analysis as integral for serving public needs. In Africa, countries are exposed to a range of significant climate risks, including variability in water resources, environmentally sensitive diseases and dependence on rain-fed agriculture […]
Strengthening Climate Information Services in Africa: Where are the Opportunities?
“Climate sensitive information needs to reach the right people for the appropriate decision that needs to be made…it is not just about useful information, but about valuable information based on user needs”. Read more on ClimateLinks >>
