The IPCC WG III Expert Review takes place from 20 July to 14 September 2012. It seeks wide participation of experts and aims for a range of views, expertise, and geographical balance. The WG III Bureau therefore invites all experts with expertise and/or publications in the specific areas covered by the IPCC Report on "Mitigation of Climate Change" to assist in the assessment process by registering to review the chapter(s) of the First Order Draft for which he/she is an expert. Prospective Expert Reviewers are asked to provide information on their scientific and technical expertise. Please refer to the WG III AR5 approved outline below.
The UNFCCC invited the IPCC to review and, if necessary, update supplementary methodologies for estimating anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions by sources and removals by sinks resulting from land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) activities under Article 3.3 and 3.4, of the Kyoto Protocol (KP), under Chapter 4 of IPCC's 2003 Good Practice Guidance for Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (GPG-LULUCF), to be completed by the end of October 2013
The WG II Expert Review takes place from 11 June to 6 August 2012. It seeks wide participation of experts and aims for a range of views, expertise, and geographical balance.

If you are an expert in one of the fields outlined in the attached document then you are invited to contact ProClim- for guidelines on how to become an expert reviewer.
The WGI Expert Review seeks wide participation of experts and aims for a range of views, expertise, and geographical balance. The WGI Bureau therefore invites all experts with expertise and/or publications in the specific areas covered by the WGI Report to assist in the IPCC assessment process by registering to review the chapter(s) of the WGI AR5 First Order Draft for which he/she is an expert. Prospective Expert Reviewers are asked to provide information on their scientific and technical expertise. Please refer to the WGI AR5 approved outline below.
Researches are asked to send relevant manuscripts and papers to the Technical Support Units of Working Group II of the IPCC. This Working Group focuses on the detection of observed changes in coupled human-earth systems and the attribution of those changes to climate change.
The second-order draft chapters and first-order draft of the Summary for Policymakers (SPM) are now being made available for Government and Expert Review.
Within the scope of the IPCC work program, a paper has been elaborated that provides guidance to the Lead Authors of the IPCC Assessment Reports on key aspects of their work. In particular, the guidance notes are intended to assist Lead Authors of the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) in a more consistent treatment of uncertainties across all three Working Groups. They also address key elements of the recommendations made by the 2010 independent review of the IPCC by the InterAcademy Council.
The Special Report "Managing the Risks of Extreme Events and Disasters to Advance Climate Change Adaptation (SREX)" is prepared under the responsibility of Working Group II (Impact, Adaptation and Vulnerability) and will be completed in 2011. The first order draft is available for Expert Review from July 26, 2010 to September 20, 2010. ProClim- agreed to coordinate the expert review part. If you are interested in this review, you may contact ProClim- to receive the access information and instructions to review the confidential first draft of the report.

The Special Report "Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation (SRREN)" aims to provide a better understanding and broader information on the mitigation potential of renewable energy sources: technological feasibility, economic potential and market status, economic and environmental costs & benefits, impacts on energy security, co-benefits in achieving sustainable development, opportunities and synergies, options and constraints for integration into the energy supply systems and in the societies. It will also assess resources by region and impacts of climate change on these resources. The report is structured with technology chapters - bio-energy, direct solar energy, geothermal energy, hydropower, ocean energy and wind energy - which will feed into the overarching chapters. A system integration chapter will be a key one, bringing all different aspects of energy demand and supply together. The report will finally consider the policy options, outcomes and conditions for effectiveness, and how the accelerated deployment could be achieved in a sustainable manner. Capacity building, technology transfer and financing in different regions will be assessed. The Special Report is prepared under the responsibility of Working Group III (Mitigation of Climate Change) and will be completed in early 2011. The first order draft of the SRREN underwent an expert review in December 2009 and has now been revised by the authors. The second order draft is available for simultaneous Government and Expert Review from June 18, 2010 to August 16, 2010.
