Abstract
Climate change is more and more considered to be a major global environmental risk. The above mentioned conference was the concluding part of a new programme organized in The Netherlands with a view to stimulating participation of Dutch scientists in the international research effort concerning the problem of climate change. The proceedings of the Maastricht Conference on Climate Change Research cover a wide range of subjects including:
* key note papers of internationally leading scientists on relevant aspects of the climate problem
* assessments of NRP-research on the climate system, the causes of potential change in the system, the possible effects and consequences of climate change, and alternative responses (including technological and/or social) that are considered within the context of sustainable development
* short papers of the NRP- and related projects with final conclusions per project
This book will be of value to anyone professionally interested in the various aspects of climate change research and policy.
The two volumes are an admirable and unique publication.
