These include participation in the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment, the Climatic Predictability and Variability Initiative, Stratospheric Processes and their Role in Climate, and the Arctic Climate System Study.

(c) Climatic conditions

Many Parties stated that they already experience severe water supply problems caused by a rapid increase in population, growing demands from agriculture and industry, expanding urbanization, unabated pollution of water bodies and the effects of climatic variability and extreme events (e.g. Lesotho, Philippines, Uganda).

Some of them show greater variability.

Here, used as a proxy, temperature variability.

Yet climate change will hit Africa hardest, because it will cripple the continent s vulnerable agricultural sector, on which 70 of the population depends. All estimates of the possible impact of global warming suggest that a large part of the continent will become drier, and that the continent as a whole will experience greater climatic variability.

Now, we have many ways to study natural variability.

We are way, way outside the normal, natural variability.

You have a huge spread due to movement variability.

Geographic, hydrographic, hydrological, hydrogeological, climatic, ecological, and other natural features

But they all tell us what the natural variability is.

And you can see, there's not much variability in these calls.

Genetics has opened the door to the study of human variability.

Evidence for Large Decadal Variability in the Tropical Mean Radiative Energy Budget.

All we can be sure of is the variability will be different.

Human activities, in addition to natural climate variability, are producing these changes.

(d) Understanding, assessing, predicting, mitigating and adapting to climate variability and change

This increase is attributed to a combination of human factors and climatic factors.

And there is natural variability caused by the Sun, caused by El Ninos.

Before 2006, we had no idea of the genetic variability of basking sharks.

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.

It is the movement from the search for universals to the understanding of variability.

I'll give you one last illustration of variability, and that is oh, I'm sorry.

The country has to contend with harsh climatic conditions and the occurrence of regular natural disasters.

The climatic factors of concern include droughts and projected reductions in freshwater availability due to global warming.

The variability of the draft convention's scope of application could entail legal uncertainty for the sector.

Many of the geographically disadvantaged countries suffer from adverse agro climatic conditions and are susceptible to natural disasters.

If I move in this particular way, I end up with a smaller variability across many movements.

The spacing, altitude and age of beach ridges are being studied to help assess climatic variations during the Holocene.

(b) Improving access to high quality data and information on current and future climate variability and extreme events

This variability is driven by the degree of aridity combined with the pressure people put on the ecosystem's resources.

Tourism is, however, a biodiversity dependent industry and it is itself also affected by climate variability and environmental change.

Adaptation to climate variability will be the only way forward in many destinations that are currently prime holiday spots.

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

Notable plans include Brazil Advances within the Program of Climatic Change of the Brazilian Federal Government's Multi year Plan (2000 2003).

India reported atmospheric and climatic research that focuses on developing customized general circulation models (GCMs) and regional circulation models for South Asia.

So what I can show you here is how the variability of the movement will evolve if I choose that way.

For example, data variability at the basic heading level may be too great for PPPs at that level to be published.

Mr. Moussa Sanon, Burkina Faso, presented a case study on transfer of technology and capacity building for coping with climate variability.

Climate change and variability, the sea level rise and susceptibility to natural disasters and other global environmental phenomena caused environmental degradation.

Because decreased biodiversity results in less resistant crops and loss of ecosystem services, pest infestations and weather variability increase agricultural stresses.

A century scale, decadal scale variability, and we know the magnitude it's about two tenths to four tenths of a degree Centigrade.

Although several countries did not provide details of their observation stations, all Parties have synoptic, climatic, meteorological, sea level, rainfall and hydrological monitoring stations.

And one intuition to get is actually the amount of noise or variability I show here gets bigger as the force gets bigger.

A study reported a warming of the surface layer characterized by a significant increase of inter annual oscillations and a significant spatial variability.
