Prof Chow is nominated to the IPCC Bureau as a developing country co-chair, where he will contribute to Working Group II, focusing on the impact of climate change on the planet and possible adaptation measures.
The IPCC publishes a series of reports that assess the scientific basis of climate change, its impact and future risks, as well as possible options for countries to cut their greenhouse gas emissions and implement the necessary adaptation measures.
“Given his extensive experience in this field, Prof Chow is well qualified to contribute to advancing the science of climate change, and shape practical recommendations on how governments and societies can effectively adapt to climate risks and enhance climate resilience,” said MSE. Each report comprises content from three working groups. Aside from Working Group II, Working Group I looks at the physical aspects of climate change, such as temperature rise, while Working Group III focuses on ways to mitigate climate change.
To ensure that climate change data and scenarios used in the IPCC reports are transparent, consistent and of high quality, Prof Chow is also a member of the panel’s Task Group on Data Support for Climate Change Assessments.
