Exercises relating to climate change
This is the overview for the third part of the SEREAD programme link with ARGO. The overview progresses from low-level concepts to higher level and establish the progression between the essential concepts for this level. One of the primary purposes of this programme is to lay the foundation for linking weather to ocean matters and Argo.

The Pacific developing member countries (DMCs) of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) are a diverse array of countries with widely varying topographies, cultures and economies, fragile natural resource environments, and prosperity, stability, and security that can be compromised by the impacts and consequences of climate change. The Pacific island governments view climate change as a priority issue, especially in terms of its potential impacts on food security, and need clear directions in addressing both issues.
As many readers will know, the south pacific sea level and climate ,monitaring project was initially develped in the early 1990's as a respond to concerns about the potiential impacts of global warming and sea levels in the pacific. The AUSAID funded project was established with a goal of providing accurate, long term record of sea levels in the south pacific both for partner countries and international scientific community which need such information to better understand how the pacific oceanographic and meteorogical environment is changing.
Scientist say climate change is already happening and temperatures will go on rising. They expect more extreme and more erratic weather. Sea levels will rise. hundreds of millions of poor people countries will be hit hardest.
Climate Change in the Pacific is a rigorously researched, peer-reviewed scientific assessment of the climate of the western Pacific region.
