Contribution of Working Group II to the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change %U http://www.ipcc.ch/ipccreports/ar4-wg2.htm %X The Report provides a comprehensive assessment of the climate change literature. The opening chapter is on observed changes, and addresses the question of whether observed changes in the natural and managed environment are associated with anthropogenic climate change. Chapter 2 deals with the methods available for impacts analysis, and with the scenarios of future climate change which underpin these analyses. These are followed by the core chapters, which assess the literature on present day and future climate change impacts on systems, sectors and regions, vulnerabilities to these impacts, and strategies for adaptation. Chapters 17 and 18 consider possible responses through adaptation and the synergies with mitigation. The two final chapters look at key vulnerabilities, and the interrelationships between climate change and sustainability. Chapters 9 to 16 of the Working Group II Fourth Assessment consider regional climate change impacts.
