Proposals for Working Out the Russian Segment of Global Framework for Climate Services (GFCS)

N. V. Kobysheva

Presented are the recommendations for the content of the national segment of the Global Framework for Climate Services based on the long-term interaction with the users of climatological in¬formation. The “Research Studies” section includes the method assessing the risk of credibility to the climatic forecasting. Discussed are the methods of disaster risk computation, risk management, and ad¬aptation to the climate change. It is asserted that normative parameters are mainly taken into account by operational services of technical sectors. Analyzed are the normative documents of the Russian Federa¬tion that are updated and agreed with Eurocodes and worked out in partnership with Roshydromet. To build up the capacity of climate services, it is recommended to use up-to-date training facilities for grad¬uate students and further education courses. Considered are the ways of interaction between users and climatologists.
