Nominations for Coordinating Lead Authors, Lead Authors, or 
Review Editors With Expertise Relevant to the Working Group I, II, and 
III Contributions to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 
(IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6)

    The United States Department of State, in cooperation with the 
United States Global Change Research Program (USGCRP), seeks 
nominations for U.S. scientists with requisite expertise to serve as 
Coordinating Lead Authors, Lead Authors, or Review Editors on the 
Working Group I, II, and III contributions to the Intergovernmental 
Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). The 
outlines for the contributions of Working Groups I, II, and III were 
adopted at the 46th session of the IPCC Plenary.
    Nominations may be submitted at https://contribute.globalchange.gov/ and additional information can be found at 
http://www.globalchange.gov/notices. This is an Open Call for 
nominations of U.S. citizens and permanent lawful residents. Author 
nominations will be collected by the USGCRP. The call for nominations 
will close on Tuesday, October 17th, 2017, and a nominations package 
will be transmitted to the IPCC Secretariat on behalf of the U.S. IPCC 
Focal Point on October 22nd, 2017. Respective IPCC Working Group Bureau 
will consider nominations of authors for the reports and make final 
selections with Technical Support Units issuing appointment memos in 
February 2018.
    The United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) and the World 
Meteorological Organization (WMO) established the IPCC in 1988. In 
accordance with its mandate, and as reaffirmed in various decisions by 
the Panel, the major activity of the IPCC is to prepare comprehensive 
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.
    This notice will be published in the Federal Register.

Acting Director, Office of Global Change, Bureau of Oceans and 
International Environmental and Scientific Affairs, Department of
