13. Encourages Governments, with the collaboration of the scientific community, mountain communities and intergovernmental organizations, where appropriate, to study, with a view to promoting sustainable mountain development, the specific concerns of mountain communities, including the effects of global climate change on mountain environments and biological diversity, in order to elaborate sustainable adaptation strategies to cope with the adverse effects of climate change

How will global climate change alter climates at the regional level?

Mountain States are characterized by remoteness, difficult accessibility, the scarcity of information, harsh geo climatic conditions, and high costs of living.

(d) In 1994, law enforcement authorities in Georgia detected experimental illicit cultivation of coca bush in Adjaria, an area in the country with a subtropical climate, and in the mountains of Svatenia.

Model for the Assessment of Greenhouse Gas Induced Climate Change (MAGICC) and Global and Regional Climate Change Scenario Generator (SCENGEN).

Noting that climate variability, rather than climate change, is an ever present regional concern, he said that coping with present day variability would go a long way down the road towards adapting for climate change.

The proverb that Mountain foot and top always see different seasons midsummer against spring or autumn against winter, with the four seasons being difficult to distinguish has highlighted the unique and typical climatic features of Shennongjia.

This is not good weather to climb in, so the climbers are just waiting, hoping that the wind's going to die down.

Climate research was focused on using the climate modelling such as the Global Circulation Model (GCM) and the Limited Area Model (LAM).

Climate change brings widespread weather events that affect whole communities at the same time.

Several WMO departments also contribute to the enhancement of regional climate outlook forum networks that strengthen capacity to anticipate and manage climate variability and change in sensitive regions and sectors.

Volcanoes eject aerosols into the atmosphere.

The Central African Republic has three types of climate a Guinean forest or equatorial climate in the south, a Sudano Guinean or intertropical climate in the centre, and a Sudano Sahelian or south Sahelian climate in the north.

That was a great time to go up and visit our weather station which again, thanks to Mitch Kapor, we're building up there.

In the first part of 2005, severe winter weather affected much of the country.

The coastal zone will be one of the first areas affected by climate change.

The air is fresh and pure.

Wherever people lived, they were dependent on mountains for fresh water and for many varieties of food and, despite their enormous genetic diversity, mountain ecosystems were extremely fragile and under daily threat from climate change and human activity.

An expedition in Prince Charles Mountains recorded meteorological data that will help forecast weather for the area.

The problem is that one is now seeing armed forces operating in climatic areas which may be more severe than their weapons have been tested to.

When you exhale your breath, it goes in the exhale counterlung when you inhale a breath, it comes from the inhale counterlung.

Lightning prone area please do not climb

Don't be cranky with me, Sam.

Let's go to weather. Mountains specialize in interesting weather.

Uganda mentioned that population pressure leads to changes in land use practices that contribute to climate change and climate variability, and projected that impacts of climate change will be severe on densely populated areas.

Affected by a stronger cold front, temperatures in many parts of Shandong Province have fallen sharply, and snowfall occurred on Mount Tai in the morning.

The application of regional climate models was reported by many Parties.

If you want to know about climate, you ask a climatologist.
