    The United States Department of State, in cooperation with the 
United States Global Change Research Program, seeks nominations for 
U.S. scientists with requisite expertise to serve as Coordinating Lead 
Authors, Lead Authors, or Review Editors on the second and third 
Special Reports to be undertaken by the Intergovernmental Panel on 
Climate Change (IPCC) during the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) cycle. 
The outlines for ``Climate Change and Land: An IPCC Special Report on 
climate change, desertification, land degradation, sustainable land 
management, food security, and greenhouse gas fluxes in terrestrial 
ecosystems'' and for the ``IPCC Special Report on the Ocean and 
Cryosphere in a Changing Climate'' were adopted at the 45th session of 
the IPCC Plenary.
    Nominations may be submitted at https://contribute.globalchange.gov/; additional information can be found at

and up-to-date assessments of policy-relevant scientific, technical, 
and socio-economic information for understanding the scientific basis 
of climate change, potential impacts, and options for mitigation and 
adaptation.
